"It is complex and enticing on the nose showing dark mushroom, warm spice, leather and vanilla characters with sweet berry notes. The palate delivers excellent weight and depth, together with plush mouthfeel and a lingering silky finish. Wonderfully fruited and richly savoury" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2018
"Made from 40% Carignan, 40% Syrah and 20% Grenache, a lovely crushed-mineral sensation leads the nose of this wine, framed by dried blackberry and muddled raspberry fruit aromas as well as glimmers of pressed purple violets, cocoa powder and black tea. A pronounced saline note unfolds in the mouth, which lifts the velvety palate and flavors of snappy red berries, cherries and plums. The finish is long and evolving, with a note of fresh cinnamon that endures" Wine Enthusiast Magazine
A lovely blend of 40% Syrah - 30% Carignan - 30% Grenache Noir then all of the wine is aged for 12 months in barrels used that are one year old.
