This wine is medium-dark ruby in the glass. A vibrant nose is led by blueberry aromas, which are followed by cassis, raspberry, and a savory meat note. The palate is a bit thin, but the dark fruit dominates. The tannins are medium-firm while the acidity is lively. It’s a fun, drinkable wine, but it finishes early and doesn’t give one much to ponder during the sip. — 16 days ago

Complex and fully developed at its pinnacle this early. Complex notes of raspberry sauce, cooked blackberries, smoke, dark cherries, caramel, meat, pepper, and herbs. Nice concentration and good finish. Outperformed expectations. — 4 years ago

Nose has smokey dry earth, dry lavender, old licorice, dried black cherry, ripe black currant, dried blackberry and (light) dried oak.

Palate has silky dried blackberry, ripe plum, black currant jam, (light) dark chocolate, dried blueberry and light tannins. Mouth coating texture. Future bottles should be 2023+

50% Grenache & 50% Mourvédre

Paired with a bottom round beef roast, slow cooked 8+ hours with autumn root vegetables and the au jus from the roast, thickened with a little of my own tomato paste, delicious. — 7 years ago

Wow tough crowd re: the reviews below. Plump and dense, with dark fruit and garrigue notes. Plenty of regional typicity for the price tag. — 6 years ago
