Blackberries zing on the nose with wood and herbs, almost garrique. Sweet black and red fruit held with mature soft tannins with lots going on mid-palate and a rich finish. Lovely

Good local feel here with plenty of garrigue showing. Relatively light, easy going, very open and drinking perfectly. Plenty of primary fruit still here, fine harmony. #lillejuleaften

70% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre, 10% Counoise/Cinsault Damask purple-red. On the nose: geranium leaf, saddle leather, dried rose petals. Coming together. Tannins almost softened out. Medium to medium-full; dark red/black fruits, some spice, depths of flavour. Fairly elegant for a C-d-P.

Pretty good CdP here, on the riper side of medium bodied, fleshy and juicy with savoury and herbal flavours pushing through. Showed a slight spike of alcohol and acidity for me but still feels in balance, some nice undergrowth and animal complexity adding some interest. Quite a full and long finish, tannins not aggressive. Like it at this point, may not be a real long termer but OK for a while yet.

Decanted one hour. Menthol and cherries. One dimensional, as it tasted as though Syrah was somehow dominating this grape cocktail.
