Dry, medium-full to full bodied, well structured, intense, slightly spicy, fairly rich, complex, intense, bright, ripe, plum-raspberry-cassis flavours with a lingering, gently cedary, lively, harmonious finish. This new blend of 35% Grenache Noir, 38% Syrah, 25% Mourvedre and 2% Cinsault has 15% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with number L139NR20 on the lower part of the glass bottle.

| TASTING NOTE: A perfumed nose of spiced cherries, forest berries, dried thyme, cloves and a touch of leather, too. It's full-bodied with creamy tannins and texture. Round with a velvety touch and a rich core of raspberries on the center palate. Some spicy character to the juicy finish. Drink or hold [until 2030+]. Score - 94 (jamessuckling.com, May 22, 2023) |
