Made from 16% Carignan, 10% Grenache, 73% Shiraz/Syrah, 1% Viognier grapes and spent 11 months in oak barrels and concrete tanks.
1.5h decant, which was fine. Very smooth and balanced cuvée (5.5 g/L acidity vs 1.7 g/L RS) with black berries, soft tannins, chocoloate and light herbs. I quite liked it but you can do better in the 30€ range.
Parker: 91p John Platter 4.5/5p

Schöne Frucht und angenehme Säure, Holz ist spürbar, aber nicht weniger balsamisch als bei vielen Weinen der Neuen Welt. Gefällt mir gut

Another short Afternoon with some New World Wines, Vol. 2018 (Mövenpick Winestore, Hamburg, Germany): One glass, brief note: warm silky appearance, fullbodied, spicy black fruit, well structured, long, has improved, **-(***), around 88- 90

A short Afternoon with some New World-wines (Mövenpick retail store, Hamburg): maybe unevolved, but showing only hints of anything, some red fruit, no great depth, quite short though, disturbing bottle, (*-**?)
