Xavier Braujou has been running the family-owned Terrasse d'Elise domain since 1998. Keeping quality as his constant watchword, he has chosen to reduce yields dramatically (to around 20 hl/ha) and to work with old grape varieties. In particular, he has opted for certain cuvées to work with single varieties, showcasing his Cinsault, Carignan and Mourvèdre grapes – too often considered only as grapes for blending. Although not certified, the vineyard is run according to organic and biodynamic principles.

This cuvée is appreciated for its fruitiness. Its colour is deep and dark while its nose unfurls an aromatic palette that shines a spotlight on red and dark fruits (redcurrant, blueberry and blackcurrant) as well as cinnammon and coriander. Its opening its fresh and direct with a lingering fruitiness. A wine to be enjoyed among friends.
