Brilliant old vine Carignan. Deeply mineral and structured. Great acidity. Dee-lish.

Superbly fresh in the 2014 vintage. Tons of acid and fruit but a surprising amount of complexity as it opens up. Perfect for a transitional red.

Pure cherries jubilee. Almost sweet on the nose and sumptuous on the palate.

Way more floral with cherries and herbs than the 2015. I think I prefer the 15. Still great.
