Made from; 50% Grenache, 35% Mataro and 15% Shiraz. The nose reveals; tea, brewed light coffee, red light and medium fruits, chewing gum and slightly turned roses. The palate has; bright, rich, ripe; dark cherries, strawberries, raspberries, touch of blackberries, bubble gum, raisins, light minerals, dark earth, ripe, bright refreshing acidity and finishes with ripe fruits that make it very easy to drink young.

Nose suggested that it might be tired but far from it on palate. Vibrant core of fruit and a lip-smacking savory finish. Needs cheese. Firm cheese. Now
