A GSM blend that's much more G than SM. Red fruit starts then turns to blue then black fruit. The Grenache provides acidity that is persistent but not overpowering. Given time to decant, the acidity softens slightly. The mid palate still delivers softness and complexity. When paired with a bit of spice, black pepper notes emerged and the dark fruit became much more prominent.

Super disappointed given the investment, started overly jammy and ended flat after praying an hour for improvement. Tannins are not holding up. We have a couple more bottles in the cellar, hoping this is a one-off problem.

This is going to only get better. Was too tempted and drank this too early. Blackcurrant, blueberry and tobacco. On day 2, tannins had softened even more, but this needs more time.

A “femmine” GSM, according to the wine maker. High level of Grenache. Quite balanced and enjoyable.
