Dark ruby color with complex dark fruits, spice, licorice, bramble, wet stone and pepper aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied and dry and round with a lush texture, dusty tannins and black cherry, plum, red currant flavors with a persistent minerality. Long finish. Pnp. Opened up nicely over the course of 90 minutes. Will continue to favorably evolve. Blend of 40% Mourvèdre, 28% Syrah, 27% Grenache, 5% Counoise 14.5% alcohol

Wow! Chocolate and dark fruit with leathery undertones, nice fine tannin grip. 24 hrs after opening (kept in airless bottle), chocolate nearly gone but an explosion of violets. Could have dabbed some behind someone’s ears for a delicious scent.
