Chateau Simone Palette Rouge, Provence, France 2018 Poggio di Sotto while a lively freshness was

while a lively freshness was alive in every wine

with a claret-like center of gravity tethered to foresty tannins

very close to the ocean in the Val de Salnés

herbal accents and a steady dose of citrus zest

which infuse a core of steeped red currant and mulberry fruit

Chateau Simone Palette Rouge, Provence, France 2018 Poggio di Sotto while a lively freshness wasChteau Simone Rouge is a tenacious but ultimately elegant wine. The pockets of old growth vines of Syrah, Manosquin, Castet, Carignan, Cabernet Sauvignon and Muscat Noir that season the vineyards along with the influence of the pine covered Mont Sainte Victoire are apparent in the flavors and aromas of the red wine of Simone and add to its stunning complexity.
