Tasted classy but disjointed with the sweet cherry Grenache and the bitter tar Mourvedre offering counterbalance but lacking integration. I feel like more Syrah might have held this together. No tertiary flavors yet but when they come they may provide a new drinking window for this wine.

Tasted good on opening, got a bit dark and heavy and brambly and showed that it’s a bit too brawny to be beautiful at the moment, but will be in the future for sure.

After 2.5 years this has really turned the corner beautifully. Black fruits, brambly wood and smooth river stones. Both bold and smooth with excellent lift. Should continue to improve.

Silky, balanced and evolving. More red fruit on pnp and then added earthy notes as the bottle was open. Best CnP I’ve had (limited experience).
