This is a blend of Grenache 75% and Syrah 15% along with ten percent Cinsault, Mourvedre, and Carignan. Deep garnet with purple swirls, mostly opaque and bright. The nose is lovely with cherries, black cherries, spices, black pepper, slight black olives and black raspberries. Medium to full bodied. Slight tannins. On the palate, juicy black cherries and cherries with spice and char. Nice finish. This drinks easy on its own and will work well with grilled meats, fowl or veggies. Drink over the next three to five years.
