Only GSM for 2017, with 47% Syrah and 31% Mourvèdre and the rest Grenache. Slightly riper and more peppery than the 2016, but the same deliciousness. Definitely a bit young to open now.
I was told the 2017 would be even better than 2016 for the smaller wineries in Paso, as it had a large crops and the smaller wineries do not have the capacity to handle all the volume, so they are very selective in picking the fruits for their own bottles.
