  Medium-bodied, soft and fresh, with a sweetness to the kirsch accompanied by gentle textures on the palate. The spicy fresh, sweet cherry, pepper finish is already in the right spot. The wine was made with a blend of 50% Grenache and 50% Mourvedre.

  This is a character I love in Chateauneuf: tarry fruit with a perfect balance of sweetness and flavor. The oak is there but only if you think about it. Bit of a cola thing happening. Not the most complex or dense wine, but amazing value. Instantly ordered a case.

  Nice balanced tannins, deep ruby in color, full body but smooth, dark fruits and peppery. Good finish.
