Smoother tannins than expected. Nice complexity. Cherry and slight fruitiness. Well balanced. Very good, but not quite worth $50 compare to other faves in the range.

We really enjoyed this s French blend, picked up and shipped from a little shop we visited on the right bank near La Graviere. 2015 is a blend of 40% Grenache, 40% Syrah, 15% Cinsault, & 5% carignan. Surprisingly complex and lengthy for the price. Both bright and dark fruits balanced with traces of tobacco, leather, with only the slightest (but delightful) funky-earth flavor and a hint of pepper/mint floral can’t quite find - all give way to a long finish of tertiary spice with a slightly herbaceous toasted oak. Lively balance of fine tannin and acidity keeps it from being too fruit-forward. Wish I had another to try in a year : ). Drinking 2015 in 7/23. Can’t believe it’s a $15 gsm gem from a sunny med area of S. Rhône!
