Chêne Bleu Abelard 2013

From Chêne Bleu’s Domaine de la Verrière in Crestet, Vaucluse, the Abelard 2013 is a refined blend of 85% Grenache and 15% Syrah. Sourced from organic vineyards at 530–550 meters near Mont Ventoux on clay-limestone soils, it’s hand-harvested and aged 18 months in French oak barrels, offering a deep ruby hue with vibrant complexity.
