Combined, Grenache Noir and Cinsault typically account for around 60% of this cuvée, with Grenache Blanc, Mourvèdre and Syrah making up the bulk of the remainder. The 2022 Tavel la Forcadiere is a medium translucent ruby in the glass, with just a hint of copper. Scents of crushed stone join notes of ripe cherries and strawberries on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is impressively taut, backed by ample acidity. The wine finishes strong, with plenty of citrus-tinged persistence and a gently silky texture.
