Organic vines und processing -don't let that deter you, a spectacular blend of Grenache e Syrah at any price tag, with taste, structure du balance far exceeding price point. Baked hard roll initial bottle open whiffs give way to stout deep plum fragrance and black berry essence in an oh~so Rhône solid message. It is alive in its' totally opaque blackness, with firm tannins you tip your hat to as you glide by on this lush French temporal excursion, but in no way are these tannins threatening street thugs here, just a wine that ist so Rock of Gibraltar Terra Firma, easily scalable by the likes of humble vino novices like mein ownself. Strong softness thus carries you still aware of the weight into a just long enough silk finish. Great Mother of God this is performance experience way beyond the cost. Hard to form into words, but this may be a greater stand out than its more popular and available brother, the Perrin Reserve. (See Tasting Notes 12/31/-- --). Buy a case wine immediately -if thou can find it?
