A great reminder that not all CDP’s are big and flashy.

Blend of 50% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and the rest Mourvèdre, Cinsault, and Counoise, Ruby with aromas of berry fruits, oak and sweet spice. On the palate flavors of raspberry, cherry and blackberry with hints of oak, leather, vanilla spice and black pepper. Aged in oak the wine was complex and elegant with smooth tannins, long spicy finish. Nice!

Classic example: I'm pairing this with beef braised in pear with charred scallion sauce on our tasting menu.

Black olive, fig, plum. Rich & robust at 10 years. Can't wait to open another bottle in 10 more years.

Tasty, maybe some Brett with notes such as strawberry, raspberry and floral.
