  PnP. Needs a few years for its components to marry together, but as revealed over the time that it was in glass, the wine shows so much potential. Deep, red fruits show against a wall of ripe tannins and a lively acidic curtain. CdP characteristics shine through, notably, lavender/violet notes with a honeyed finish. Recommend holding off for at least two years to see where this wine sits.

  Smoky, earthy, spicy, peppery, olive, thyme and dark red fruits are all over the place here. The fruit is ripe, round, sweet, fresh and tannic, so allow it some time in the cellar before pulling a cork. The wine is made in a full-bodied, hedonistic style that I think is great! The wine was made with a blend of 50% old vine Grenache, 30% Mourvedre and 20% Syrah.
