  Ready to drink! 80% Grenache so this Chateauneuf is subtle but tasteful, with notes of red fruits and cassis on the nose. It has complexity which I wasn't expecting. Got rated 88 by RP.
  It smells like strawberry and black currant (cassis). The body is medium.

  Garrigue, savory red fruits, and spice come alive with little effort. Here, you find a medium-bodied, elegant, soft, fruit-filled, expression of Grenache. There is a lushness to the fruits that feels just great on your palate. This is already so easy to drink, I snuck in a taste or two, writing this note. The Mourvedre in the blend adds a lot to the wine. Drink from 2023 - 2035
