TASTING NOTE: 45/40/15% blend, matured in mostly French but with some American oak (for the mourvedre component). No mention of viognier this year but it feels as though there's a dab. Heightened fruit/spice aromatics with liquorice and raspberry hitting the palate. A wine of verve and polish. Acid and tannin just so. Drink By: 2024.
