Ruby color with appealing strawberry cream, sour cherry jolly rancher aromas with light spice, and mineral notes. On the palate, it's light-bodied with vibrant acidity, a juicy texture underscored a some dusty tannins with strawberry, sour cherry, plum, spice and a bit of earthiness on the finish. Medium plus finish. A wonderful Beaujolais style wine. Fermented with the native yeasts on the grapes; aged in large French oak barrels; unfined; and bottled with low SO2 levels 2012 Vintage

Light bodied. Nice fruit. Greater minerallity. Not a typical grenache at all but in a nice way!

Initially a little shy but evolves nicely with some air. Super refreshing a drinkable / versatile with food style.

2014 vintage. Good, but hopefully will integrate a bit with time.

I was really pleased with this. Friend and I chose it to pair with both beef and trout and it served both well.
