This is a terrific buy in a juicy deep, balanced CDRV. 50% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre, 10% Counoise. Very juicy and pure on the nose, nice vibrancy. On the palate, fruit and lots of crushed stone are the primary players. Nice acids, and a little bitterish note livens up the finish. Not complex, but a very satisfying week night dinner pull.
UPDATE: 48 hours later, still fresh and a little more smoky complexity.
