Smells like Crozes. Nice brambly fruit again as well as smoke. Stemminess on the finish, some whole cluster here? Big palate, firm tannins. Lush berry fruit. Nice.

11/12/13 blend. Damn it is good. Just the juiciest but well reserved crowd pleaser. And why shouldn't it be! At 55$ this is unbeatable.

Awestruck at this Rhone styled GSM when you look at quality and price! Nearly glass staining when poured. Nose of black fruit with smashed blueberries being the main player. The punch line of this wine (besides price) is the soft lush tannins on the sip-perfect for this style of wine. Good fruit structure, baked cherry, plum and sour black cherry. Finishes big with slight pepper tingle that fills the throat and sinus. Opened for about 2 hours to breath before pour.

2011/2012/2013 multiple vintage blend of 46% Syrah, 41% Grenache, 13% Mourvèdre. Yum.
