In the nose the aroma of passion fruit, white flowers, honeysuckle, vanilla, and a hint of apricots. Pleasant round, full attack and long final with some spiciness.

Vinification
When you taste the harvest, you do not taste hard Languedoc wines but soft ones, by using the partially cooled fermentation and using 'macération carbonique': smooth, juicy, full, fruity, spicy and refined wood. Yet the AOC wines have a lot of concentration without being really complex.

About Dom. des Crès Ricards
Domaine des Crès Ricards is a relatively new domain in the 'world of wine'. The domain is 28 hectares and is located in the west 35 km from Montpellier in the heart of the Côte de Languedoc (Terrasses de Larzac). The vineyards are planted 60m above sea level. Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Alicante, Marselan and Chardonnay were cultivated on these terraces with stony ground. This domain always works with low yields (+/- 40hl / ha).
