Top Notes For
2019 Vintage - I like this wine for its wild Character (60%-Carignan, 30%-Grenache Noir, 10% -Syrah ) the Carignan planted in the 1950’s - Dark purple rim, wild dark fruit, plum , spice , oregano, aged in used French oak barrels and cement tank - enjoyable wine for $16 dollars

Acidity is right on point and its silky mouthfeel is delightful. Seek this out and enjoy with simple roast chicken. 60% Carignan from vineyards planted in 1904, 30% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre. Soil: Silica, clay and limestone.
