Top Notes For

Cacao, raspberry coulis, bramble and a touch of oak spice. Firm tannin structure with subtle acid to give line and length. Fantastic wine with some New Zealand roast lamb.

Raspberry coulis with subtle cocoa. On the nose and palate you get plenty garrigue.

Bright red fruit meets almost thin mint cookies notes on the nose. Supple and smooth, red raspberry jammy fruit dominates the palate. Decanted for 8 hours. Stood up to NY strip steak.

I loved it. #syrah dominant blend with #grenache I'm beginning to see that I prefer #gigondas over #vaqueyras smooth and velvety tannins. Good ripeness.
