Hermitage Farconnet 2020

This earthy, sanguine version is an excellent expression of place. Fruit and spices keep pace with the smoke, graphite and olive tapenade notes, plus a hint of truffle. Creamy in feel, with all of its elements integrated seamlessly. Offers old-school charm in an elegant, well-meshed and focused frame.
