A pleasantly fruity blend unfortunately cursed by a "spritzy-metallic" tinge. Offending taste mellows when you coat the tongue with some grub (ie yummy potato chips!).

1 person found it helpfulFeb 3rd, 2016Delightful appearance with a bountiful, if not detailed nose having notes of red fruits and light spice. On the palate quite full with tastes of plum and damson with over ripe strawberry. A good acidity with lightish tannins so overall balanced with a reasonable lingering length. Very enjoyable.

Hardworker of the evening. Quite fresh and friendly. Versatile but uneventful.
50/20/15/15 Grenache/Syrah/Cinsault/Carignan, aged 10 months in vats and large oak.
Deep garnet color, purple rim.
Clamped nose of cloves, blackberry, black cherry, whiff of pepper.
Medium-bodied palate with well-polished balance. Soft tannins. Blackberry and black currant flavors mostly with spicy strawberry nuance.
Moderate finish duplicating palate.
Paired almost everything served:)

Red current, fresh raspberries, fresh cranberries. A French blend that goes nicely with a casual dinner with a casual price tag. I don't love it, but it's good on Wine Thursdays (or any day!)
