This wine is proof that good producers make good wine even in challenging vintages. It is mostly 85% Grenache with the rest Mourvedre and Clairette. Deep ruby in color, mostly opaque and bright. The nose is nice with cherries and black cherries, char and slight floral notes. Medium bodied. On the palate, this is chewy with fresh cherry fruit. Some underlying char. Quite tasty. Long finish. This is at peak now and should be drunk over the next five years. A nice drink on its own, it will work better with food. Stews, chili or meatloaf would work well.
