Supple, darker than expected with notable heat. A great deal of cassis is offered on the palate along with a pleasant...

A solid, fruity-herbal, wild Mediterranean scrub-scented CdR, well within the regional idiom. Solid value for money....

This organic red wine is a blend of equal parts Syrah and Grenache, plus some Mourvèdre to round out the blend. The medium+ intensity nose offers lovely smoky black cherry, blackberry, and spice notes with hints of currant and minty herbs adding complexity. The medium-full bodied palate is more red-fruited and ripe with cherry, pepper spice, and currant flavours, along with some smoky mineral notes on the mid-palate. It has balanced acids and chewy, fine-grained tannins. Finishes with mocha chocolate and spice notes, with good length. Enjoy over the next 5 years. Tasted July/2019.

An organic CdR, with typical pepper and herb infused ripe fruit flavours. A bit rustic and just an average finish but solid enough. Best to give it a slight chill before drinking. Tasted Aug 2020.
