A beautifully wrought red from the southern Rhône this 2018 Saint‑Damien Côtes du Rhône‑Villages Plan de Dieu Vieilles Vignes presents harmonious notes of sun‑ripened black cherries and fragrant garrigue seasoned by gentle briny undertones, all enveloped in a finely balanced, plush texture that speaks of its venerable Grenache and Mourvèdre roots. The wine unfolds gracefully with a subtle sense of terroir‑driven elegance emerging from deeply rooted vines planted on stony clay‑rich soils in Plan de Dieu.
