Fruity. With berry notes. Sweet. Good value for money.

A solid French red for $12. Clear dark violet, leggy. Nose is sorta like a southern Rhone--dirty strawberry--, but it's a little darker and oakier. Dense with age. On the palate the fruit is much darker: cooked black cherries, black plum, and a tasteful note of pruney oak. Clear brusque tannins, long tasty finish. Nothing wrong here!

Grenache-carignan-syrah, 92 points chez Parker mais sans bois. Une valeur sûre : équilibrée, agréable, fruité...
