Black cherry, plum, and raspberry with dried thyme, cracked pepper, and licorice. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, stony finish. Benefits from a short decant.

About the Producer:
Jean Royer is a small, quality-focused Châteauneuf producer known for clean, Grenache-driven wines that lean savory and structured rather than glossy or over-oaked. The style is classic Southern Rhône: ripe fruit, garrigue herbs, and real grip for the table (and a few years in the cellar).
