Love this wine, showing a some more tertiary development and integration since LBT. Delicious

We wanted a red to go with both a burger and duck breast, and looked what popped off the list at Bol! Half old mourvèdre balanced with grenache and syrah, it's still very young but also well-balanced and fresh. It needs another 5 years cellaring to really blossom, me thinks.

I really liked this, very classy, and the fruit balanced the acidity well.

Cherry and chalk. Good value for $23. Subtle, just wish the syrah had a little bit more pepper.

Black cherry fruit, laced with currant, smoked meat and forest floor. Well balanced and the tannins hold up well on the medium, earthy finish. Approachable now, but would benefit from time in the cellar. Easily has 5 years, maybe 10. Interesting and fantastic.

Really nice French wine from the makers of Nostre Pais. Drinks like a California Chardonnay.
