We named our Grenache blend ABÉLARD to reflect its forceful, masculine, brooding intensity. Our mature (25 year old plus) Grenache flourishes at this high altitude and at harvest the scent of wild strawberries and black fruit wafts through the winery. We have strived to capture and showcase this highly perfumed aroma.

Appearance: A very deep ruby.

Nose: Abélard’s rich dark character lifts from the glass, showing ripe blackberry, garrigue, liquorice and spice.

Palate: Intense and concentrated. Layered fruit (blackberry and morello cherry) with plenty of spice. The fine-grained tannins give lots of welcome structure. Like premium cuvée Châteauneufs, it is elegant and powerful, with a masculine profile.
