I am not sold on this. Notes of apple peel, heavy alcohol on the nose and some of the heat on the throat is a bit unpleasant. Maybe I would like it better if I had not recently had some delicious bargain Rhone’s that blew me away. Maybe it will turn tail as it opens up bit for now I won’t be seeking it out again.

Plenty of Grenache. But good balance probably some Syrah also. Went well with red meats and roasted veggies. Solid food wine. A bit brash just to sip on its own.
