    Winemaker Notes

    "From soil to sun, this mourvedre-syrah blend captures the Roussillon. Wild herbs and lanolin notes puncture the chocolate-smooth blend. From within the depths of ripe, juicy black fruit, rich, earthy tannins add a primal growl. It's wild and delicious."
    - Wines & Spririts

    Dark purple-red with complex ripe berry-cassis aroma and cinnamon, vanilla and coffee bean notes. Balanced, poised, and concentrated wine with long finish. A "Grand Cru" in all (and to all) senses from the tiny, elite Banyuls-Collioure vineyard - a true value in red wine with great spicy fruit, concentration, and class. Grape Varieties: 33%Mourvedre, 33% Syrah, 33% Grenache.

    The PAULILLES vineyard surrounds the bay of PAULILLES in the heart of the appellation of COLLIOURE and BANYULS. Les Clos de Paulilles is owned and managed by the Dauré family, the preeminent wine growing family of the Rousillon. Les Clos de Paulilles is the largest vineyard in the overlapping appellations of Banyuls and Collioure, situated in the southern most extremity of France on the Spanish border. The vineyards are steeply terraced like the vineyards in the Mosel, Cote Rotie or the Douro.

    With bold fruit flavors and accents of sweet spice, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre form the base of the classic Rhône Red Blend, while Carignan, Cinsault and Counoise often come in to play. Though they originated from France’s southern Rhône Valley, with some creative interpretation, Rhône blends have also become popular in other countries. Somm Secret—Putting their own local spin on the Rhône Red Blend, those from Priorat often include Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. In California, it is not uncommon to see Petite Sirah make an appearance.

    Collioure, the appellation name for the dry table wines produced in the area overlapping Banyuls, is on the coast at the French-Spanish border. The climate is warm Mediterranean and supports many grape varieties. Red Collioure wines are composed of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre (60% minimum in combination) with Carignan and Cinsault forming the remainder. Rosés come from the same grapes with up to 30% Grenache Gris permitted and dry whites (allowed since 2003 to hold the appellation name) are full-bodied and aromatic wines based on Grenache Blanc and Gris.
