  Meaty and earthy, this SGM is head and shoulders above most of the stuff I've tasted from the south of France. Beautiful ripe tannins and a nice lick of oak on the finish. Top class.

  I've written about this wine extensively for Ottawa Life, but this is my first tasting of the wine since I bought a few in early January (and tasted the wine in November). It was even better than I remembered and it was a good compliment to the pork tenderloin served as the main: cherries, blackberries, violets, plum, anise, so well-balanced and just a delicious wine.

  Far out, I really, really enjoyed this. One of the best syrah blends I can remeber having in quite a while. Ripe black fruits, meat and spice, earth and italian herbs. Chocolatey oak. Just heaps and heaps going on, but it all comes together in one beautiful to drink wine. Which is what it is all about, after all.
