Lovely perfume of red fruits, spice and earthy gravelly notes. The same characters come through on the light to medium weight palate with spicy top notes. Fine tannins. Not for cellaring, great to drink right now. First time with this small family owned producer and it won’t be the last. I also bought 2 bottles each of their Gigondas and Vacqueyras Cuvées when I bought 2 bottles of this Cuvée. Great value at only $40 AUD.

I love this wine. Grenache Syrah and cinsault blended into a terrific dark-fruited quaffer with notes of white pepper.

Straightforward rhone.. Only problem is I'm not the biggest fan of rhone.. Maybe that will change.

Mineral nose. Juicy and round. Dry cherry. Bright acidity. Very nice. Nice our usual varietal but we were pleasantly surprised.

Drinking with mom and dad, Kay wine. The color is super dark red. It smells very dry and dark red fruit. It drinks very dry, the flavor is dark red fruit and very grenache. It is bright though, fades quick though. Long after taste. Would drink again but a little expensive at $25.
