Jun 12th, 20222016 is 80% Grenache, 17% Syrah, 3% Mourvèdre. Biodynamic. Nice tannins, leather, garrigue, black cherry, anise. Pretty young right now - maybe another year to integrate everything. Nice.

Dec 24th, 2018Love this! Bright cherry acidity, with dried medicinal tones. Licorice, anise, but bacon and meat. #SommCon

Jul 23rd, 2018A fun wine, this one has a sweet cherry nose with hints of leather. It tastes ripe almost to the point of being jammy but it's not and it's very well-balanced, quite delicious.
