Easy to drink, but I’m not blown away by it. But it was simple and clear (taste wise) to play “what is this wine?” with my husband. Garnet red with slow forming, clear tears, no color variation, and no noticeable opacity. Smells of underripe blue fruit, new leather, and white mushroom (fresh). Taste of blue fruit, but as if it was quickly and briefly sautéed (flash heat), nutmeg and other baking spices. Sightly dry aftertaste but it doesn’t last. Drink this while petting a cockapoo. Like the wine, it’s a blend and is a crowd pleaser.

Blend of 55% Grenache, 40% Syrah with 5% other varieties. Ruby color with aromas of red berry fruits with spicy notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and raspberry, juicy with pleasant spices. Fine tannins, good balance with acidity, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Consistent from year to year. Good value!
