Polished and elegantly layered Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah offers red plum and black cherry on the nose, with scent of cigar box, forest floor, bay, baking spices and vanilla. Expressive black raspberry, sassafras and smoky pepper flavors that linger with salted dark chocolate, red plum, black raspberry, and cherry on the finish.

93 Points
A beautiful garnet color in the glass. Aromas of pomegranate, vibrant cranberry, candied strawberry, gravel, and rose perfume lead to a palate of cinnamon, clove, tea leaf, bing cherry, a touch of earth, and an opulent, fleshy texture.

Aromas of candied apple, lemon peel, and toasted marcona almond. The palate is rich yet finely balanced, offering a creamy texture lifted by bright acidity. Delicate and composed, it finishes with a gentle mineral snap and lingering citrus.
