justerini & brooks tasting note

Playful fresh and vivid red fruit aromas, wonderful ripe juicy and moreish berry flavours on the palate, clearly more spice and complexity than previous vintages, touches of pepper clove and cinnamon complementing a lush sweet red fruit and sloe liqueur finish. A de-stalked Grenache-dominated wine aged in large oak foudres with a small dollop of Mourvèdre and, for the first time in 2010, a touch of Cinsault included in the blend.

critic reviews

91/100Josh Raynolds,Vinous

Ruby-red. Aromas and flavors of candied red berries and garrigue, with a spicy nuance adding vivacity. Intensely floral and seamless in texture; this is quite approachable. Finishes sweet and very long, with lingering spiciness and only a hint of tannins.
