80% Grenache (45-55 year old vines), 15% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre. This is deep, rich and brooding. Tasting more like Syrah than Grenache with its black pepper and black olive notes. Yet there's the sweetness of old vine Grenache to yield a complex and delicious wine.

Medium-light, neither particularly sweet nor dry (a nice ride), a bit of vine and soil. Overall, drinks French, but not heavily acidic or tannic; smooth.
