Blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre, and 5% Carignan. The medium-high intensity nose is fresh and open with minerally and peppery aromas followed by perfumed, dark red cherry, cranberry, and dark red plum notes in a complex profile. It's medium-full bodied with very good concentration on the dry palate with nicely balanced aroma replays echoing on the flavour profile. It has juicy acidity, along with smooth, supple tannins on the mid-palate. Finely textured on the long, crisp, and savoury mineral finish. Last tasted Nov. 2024. Score: 90+ pts
