Notes from the Winemaker:
Ex Arena is Latin for “From the Sand,” an homage to the terroir from which this wine originates. Located in Corneilhan about 20km from the Mediterranean and at an elevation of 40m above sea level, Ex Arena is a blend of primarily Grenache, with a small addition of Mourvedre. The average age of these vines is 35 years old. The freely draining sandy soil is deep and rocky and was once an ancient beach eons ago – a terroir that results in extremely low yields from 10–20hl/ha.
Ratings & Reviews
92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The Grenache-dominated cuvee is the 2015 IGP Pays D'Oc Ex Arena, 85% Grenache and 15% Mourvèdre brought up in stainless steel. It offers textbook Grenache notes of wild strawberries, blackberries and rose garden in its medium to full-bodied, elegant, seamless personality. With ultra-fine tannin, gorgeous purity and no hard edges, it should drink nicely for 5-6 years, possibly longer." - Jeb Dunnuck (Apr 2017)
