64% Syrah, 36% Grenache, 100% yummy. Gorgeously pure nose shows vibrant, oozing red berries, red florals, freshly-cracked stone dust. Deeply flavored but with a zingy energy throughout, with nice salinity in the finish. Great balance. Only 14% alc. The zinginess is fun now but I could see this settling down in couple of years and gaining some complexity.

Bellis Noir. Cuvée of Syrah, Grenache and Pinot Noir. Quite juicy. Fresh oregano and some earth. Cool wine.

Better the second day, so I would recommend holding or a long decant. Added richness from the high percent of syrah, but I did not enjoy it much more than a good value southern Rhône.
