2017 La Boutine 100% Grenache from a 1940's block on stoney well drained soils, part of the Escaravailles success story stems from the fact they have access to some very old fruit high up in the hills. There is a lovely flow to this vintage, maybe less extraction too in 17 (no bad thing) bright wild strawberry & violets, are woven nicely with a touch of white pepper & wild garrigue. Take everything into context, price, region etc, look past the alcohol because it isn't out of balance then it is hard not to make a case for La Boutine consistently making wines of brilliant value, Sunday roast lamb would make the perfect partner.

Domaine des Escaravailles
Domaines des Escaravailles was established in 1953 by Jean-Louis Ferran and his two sons, Daniel and Jean-Pierre, in the village of Rasteau.
Today it is run by the third generation of the family, Gilles, the son of Daniel. With vineyards on not only the clay, limestone hillsides of Rasteau, but also in Cairanne, Roaix, Villedieu and St Roman de Malegarde. The estate is run organically and everything is done by hand with the wines made in the cellars in the heart of the property in Rasteau.
The estate takes it's name from the Occitan word for the Scarab Beetle, which you will also find adorning the labels of the wines.
