Tasting note
Very dark, savoury, racy stuff with real excitement. The non-Grenache ingredients seem to knit it all together. Sinewy and complete. Polish. Long and very satisfying. Score - 18 out of 20. (Jancis Robinson, MW, jancisrobinson.com, Nov. 19, 2014)
This dry, full-bodied and spicy red displays a complex and medium nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity, firm tannins, and broad texture precede a long finish.
