Intensive fruit flavor yet perhaps not the most elegant wine this evening. But who am i trying to kid here, this is straight up my alley. Full throttle grenache fruit with some heat, ideal for friday sausages!

Lovely jammy grenache notes of raspberry coulis upfront, but also a lot of cassis/currants which were slightly dominant. Fresh wine, not the least heavy or hot though it comes loaded with 15%. A funny, friendly companion after dinner with some dark chocolate. One bottle left, that's just enough.

Salty licorice, raspberries and heady Grenache fruit dominates. Even though it is a 2008 it seems to have been grown under intense heat, best served sligtly under normal temperatue. Still great wine and really good QPR.

Delicious jammy grenache nose of strawberries and raspberries. Smooth sweet-fruity candy taste with an obvious presence of residual sweetness (maybe 8-10 grams). Good acid freshness and no heat at all from the 15%. Quite a crazy and controversial wine - halfway to Banyuls - but it should fit in well with chocolate or cheese. A charmer! Bound to seduce fans of grenache. Made of ecologically grown grapes (Ecocert).
