Most of Rouanne’s vineyards date from the 1960s - 50+ years of old vines

" His debut 2018 Château de Rouanne Vinsobres is a 50/45/5 blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, co-fermented with whole bunches, as is Barruol’s typical preference.

It’s exuberant, with a range of violet, alder, bay and sage aromas backed by a fleshy core of dark plum and black cherry fruit. It’s got a grippy edge and leans to the dark side of the spectrum, with a warm earth accent, but the herb and floral details give it detail and cut.

Fans of Barruol’s wines, and fans of gutsy Rhône wines in general, will want some bottles of this rock-solid value."
