TASTING NOTE: This is a lovely, fragrant, peppery-strawberry scented grenache blend, with silky-firm texture and savoury finish, with minimal wood influence. It's the sort of red I'm happy to drink on myriad occasions, from braised meat dishes to late night sipping. Fine complexity and depth overall.
