- TASTING NOTE: "A pure and transparent red with redcurrants, wild berries, fresh cherries and hints of baking spices. Medium body with bright acidity. The smooth and silky character on the palate brings a joyful and poised profile to this blend, consisting of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Carignan. Refreshing and vivid. From organically grown grapes." 91 Points - James Suckling.com
