This has a slightly reductive meaty nose of more traditional Rhone winemaking, along with pepper and dried herbs. I...

Very good red Rhone, perhaps not as full-bodied and generous as expected, but fresh and balanced, with a good mass of...

A blend of old vines 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre. Medium intensity nose offers nice blackberry liqueur, dark berry, spice, and kirsch, with hints of graphite and loamy earth aromas. It is medium-full bodied on the palate with blackberry, spice, and graphite flavours. Acids are balanced and juicy, while finely textured tannins are well-integrated. Graphite notes and a touch of bitterness linger on the finish, with very good length. The 14.5% alc./vol. is well-balanced. Enjoy over the next 3-4 years. Tasted July/2019.
