  Granache and Syrah blend with 14% ABV. Deep red in colour with bright red fruits, blackcurrant & pepper on the nose and taste. Bit jammy and juicy. Good QPR wine. Drink now definitely.

  Very solid. Little bit of spice at the front, nice full finish.

  WSET Teaching Level 4 for Northern Rhone (Stellenbosch): Mid ruby
  Soft aromas of raspberry, black pepper, aniseed and red cherry coulis.
  A sweet, rich entry with mouth-filling fruits of raspberry and ripe Bing cherry. Not a lot of acidity, but there is a cool menthol lozenge that gives a slight confectionary note.
  Medium-bodied with grainy tannins, there is some breadth to the mid-palate and a slightly salty and diesel note to the finish, which is not altogether unpleasant. A supple, relatively simple wine for immediate drinking over the next 2-3 years.

  Ok for a casual BBQ with friends. Fleshy Syrah notes on the nose, not really balanced, the 14,5% is a bit too obvious. Guigal’s and Chave’s CdRs are better choices in my opinion.

  Earthy, dark fruit, and gravel aromas, with a dusting of spices over juicy, black raspberry flavors. Easy going but really well made. Excellent value and great with spicy Mexican.
