Delicious; red fruit, nutmeg, tobacco. Super classy. The spice on the finish is alluring.

Love this mineral tar granite thing. Blueberries and black fruit leather. Subtle Salumi/yogurt lactic thing. Very nice.

Gallow Green is the rooftop restaurant of the Sleep No More venue.
This grenache based on blend is juicy, plump, peppery and pleasing for immediate drinking.

Peppery salty but too much tannin for me.

This was a blend of mostly Mourvèdre with some Grenache and Syrah. Took a minute to come around but then drank like a high quality Cotes du Rhône.
