2014 Vintage. 15.6% Alcohol. 39% Syrah, 38% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 3% Tannat. Best the next day after wine preserved in Argon so decant or give more time in the cellar but this is really good. Licorice, tobacco and boysenberry nose. Smooth mouthfeel. Great job Russell From.

Why is the Casual Encounters that I had have a different makeup? It seems like the blend pictured is what everyone is raving over. The bottle I have is literally the worst wine I've ever tasted. I'm incredibly disappointed.
