Medium red in color. Aromas of red cherry, berry fruits, anise and milk chocolate are melded by complex herbs and spices. The hallmark of this wine is 100 day post-ferment maceration which imparts incredible silky texture and refinement to the palate, creating a textural wine with depth, structure, vibrant acidity and defined tannins. Stunning now, it will gradually evolve over the medium term.
Pair with pork and pear sausage rolls with prune relish, grilled broccoli, green olives and white bean salsa or buckwheat, pomegranate and carrot tabbouleh.
96 Points - James Suckling
Aromas of blueberries and wild herbs, as well as raspberries and a complex, spicy and fragrant edge. Blood orange and pomegranate here, too. The palate is smoothly emulsified and has red-cherry, raspberry, orange and blood-orange flavors. Pithy kick on the finish and plenty of concentration. Very resolved.
92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
From 130-year-old vines, this Grenache offers an enticing, intriguing perfume of strawberries still on their stems, cut flowers in water, vanilla bean and florals. The mid-weight palate is starting to show some bottle age, with slightly cooked red-berry-jam flavors, but there’s still a lick of juicy freshness and a tannic tug.
