Dense, tannic red fruit. Needed another 10yr to soften.

Smells of candied apricot, dried fig, and Smokey edges.

Medium bodied, yet towards the heavier side, deep Smokey fruits, tabac, black cherry rolling around in the hay with some garrique and acidity. Dark tones linger on like a good old fashioned Edgar Allen Poe story..

Bold yet elegant & interesting #cotesdurousillonvillages red blend: 60% #mourvedrè 40% #grenache. Nose presents with heady bramble fruit, cassis and a hint of dried mint and thyme. Taste features the big wave of black and purple fruit offset by healthy acidity, continued dried herb and slightly spicy notes towards the end and soft tannins on the finish. This evolution a day in the wine fridge suggests this could easily age for 5 - 8 years.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise. A quick skim of my reviews shows I’m partial to Italian reds. This French red blend was nice!
