Made in a traditional style with no evident new oak, leathery, meaty notes balance dusty earth and sour plums on the nose, while the palate is full, round and richly textured. Finishes with dark, savory notes of coffee and black olives. Drink now–2017.

The cherry, leather and chocolate aromas are accompanied by a slightly citrusy aroma in this blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Carignan and 5% Cinsault. It’s creamy, warm and inviting on the palate, with black cherry and plum fruit, before turning chocolaty on the long finish. Drink now.
