My last Roald 2016 “GSM” = Grenache, Syrah & Mourvedre. Sourced from Chalk Hill AVA as well as other California sites. Medium Ruby color of this lovely Rhône Blend with aromas of dark berry fruits, rustic spices & smoky notes. On the palate flavors of black cherry & blackberry fruit with cacao, leather & earthy notes, wrapped in vivid acidity on nicely structured frame. Fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with a fruit and spice character. Drinks very nicely now! Good value! Aged well! Tasting Sample!

This was actually the Cabernet and it was great. Smooth from start to finish
