Tasting Notes: Very full with an intense, sweet, rich nose of red berry fruits and a hint of oak. The attack is gorgeous, full of sweet, spicy cherry fruit, very concentrated with excellent balance and a long, long finish. | Drinking Dates: 2012 to 2018 | Cépagement: 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre | Upbringing: Mourvedre and Syrah aged in oak. | Critic Reviews: "An extraordinary bouquet of black cherry jam and hoisin sauce. It is a big, full-bodied, concentrated, super-ripe, chewy effort with sweet tannins, a multi-layered mouthfeel and a heady finish." 92/100 ( Wine Advocate) |
