5/15/15. Nose like macerated dark fruit, blackberries, black cherry, plums. Grenache-y dark cherry astringency comes through but some Syrah fills it out. Some heat on the finish but better integrated than I remember from an earlier tasting. A little more modern than I like in a CDP but very tasty. Even better after a couple of hours in glass!

Fresh sweet fruit
👃 Very expressive. Dark fruit with some spice, a bit of garrigue, mint, and a touch of oak
👅 Rich, sweet, mostly purple fruits(plums, purple grapes, black raspberries) with
mint. Full bodied. Fruit forward. Quite fresh. Drinking very well.
Tannins-soft and nearly imperceptible
Finish-long and pleasant
This is best as a pop and pour. Best served cool to keep it fresh. Loses focus with more air. Immutable wall of flavor. A wine of big, sweet fruit. Too sweet?
Delicious 😋
