I gave this an 89 1 1/2 years ago. It has improved with aging but this time I let it air almost an hour before drinking and had with dinner. I think this will be at its peak or improve for multiple years.

90m air for this blend of 75% Grenache, 20% Carignan and 5% CabSauv.
Deep Purple color. Aromas of blackcurrant, dark cherry, dried leaves and mushrooms. Medium-Full body, suede texture, firm tannins. Edgy on the palate, with loads of dark fruit and an earth finish. Objectively good. Considering price: Great.

Great nose, I think the carignan acidity came through stronger than I would like.
