Domaine Famille Ligneres Le Signal 2003

Juicy, dark black plums, black cherries and spicy, bloody meat on the nose. A mouthful of delicious, juicy blackberries, cinnamon, and a judicious hint of oak.

Blend: Carignan 80% , Grenache 10%, Syrah 5%, Mourvèdre 5%

In the 1920s, Louis Lignères delivered the domaine's wines with his Berliet barrel-carrier truck to the Pyrenees Mountains. His customers couldn't be impatient: it took him 22 hours at an average speed of 11km/h (6.8mph) to go from Alaric Mountain to Lourdes! And he announced his arrival with the Signal of the truck's characteristic horn.
