Excellent complexity coupled with youthful jubilance on nose, loaded with Mediterranean spice and purple flowers, black olive liquorice and juicy plums. Bright and punchy, very spicy and streamlined, beautiful rhone inner perfume, non-obtrusive alcohol, finishes succulent and easy drinking, with striking acidity. Fantastic, food friendly rendition of rhone lifestyle wine!

Smooth #Rhone #wine. Opening smelled of fatty game . Greasy dark chicken meat, some potpourri and berry. Clearity in the glass, dense deep dark red colors. Palate is quick, lifting of smooth cherry/raspberry. Opened 1/10/17

Soft, elegant, then muscles through on the finish. Roasted plum, garrigue, and a hint of baking spice. 70% grenache 30% syrah

Needed to open up, a bit too much tannin, especially at first. Not a big red: dry, mineral; not sweet or jammy.

Nice, light. Not quite as rich and deep as I would like, but definitely a wine to have again.
