53% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 8% Cinsault, 2% Counoise, 2% Mourvèdre
This rustic and ripe Rhone style red blend lends complexity to both the nose and the palate. Concentrated flavors of dark berries, vanilla, and spice emerge with underlying hints of white pepper and smoke. This blend provides a smooth, balanced mouthfeel, delightful acidity, and integrated tannins. Pair with juicy, gamey meats, robust cheeses, and rich flavored pastas.
