The Héritages range is a product of Ogier’s hundred-year-old expertise & the finest of the Côtes du Rhône terroirs.

This GSM blend is a product of Ogier's hundered-year-old expertise and finest Rhone terroirs. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre grapes were sourced from selected forty-year-old vines and blended carefully to produce this wine full-bodied palate of structured fruit with hints of mild spices. These vineyards are situated on the Villafrancien terraces of St Marcel d’Ardèche, on the hills of Avignon and Roquemaure – Sand from the 'Aigues' valley – and layered stones on slopes from the 'Plan de Dieu'. In the winery, the juice spent 6 months in oak barrels called 'foudres' (4 to 40 years old) and 'curves tronconiques' (12 years old).

ABV: 14.5%
