A fruity and textured red with notes of candied cherries, redcurrants, dried herbs and mild spices. Medium body with chewy tannins. Spicy and sharp with transparent berry character towards the succulent peppery finish. Drink or hold.

In 2021, Janasse didn't bottle a Les Garrigues, so that fruit went into the 2021 Cotes du Rhone Villages Terre d'Argile. There's no doubt it improved the quality of this wine, a blend of approximately one-third each Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah. Cherries, garrigue and raspberry notes all appear on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is silky and fine, with a long, elegant finish. It's a strong effort for the vintage and likely to be a solid value as well.
