Very good. Elegant, with fresh red and black fruit with just a hint of overripe. Dried herbs and earthy garrigue complement the fruit, the body is on the lighter side of medium. Acid lifts up the palate and grainy tannins work very well to contribute to texture. Syrah-Mourvedre-Grenache-Cab blend sourced from high quality vineyards after the winery lost their harvest in 2017.

Nose of pomegranate, allspice, and scorched earth. Medium body on the palate with soft tannins and mild acidity that portend further age-ability. Candied red fruit and a touch of bitterness as well. Very pleasant, long finish.

Opened and paired with beef cabbage stew. Dark, inky crimson color with gritty sediment. The floral nose brought cherry blossoms and forest floor. The palate brought nice red currant juxtaposed against black fruit notes and a salty finish. Steady, balanced, linear, and an extremely drinkable Cuvée. Did not need to decant. Drink 2022-2025. Technical score: 90. Enjoyment score: 92.

Soft aromas of redcurrants, lilies, and incense. On the palate a penetrating density of tannin and fruit with a slight but firm acid frame, structured with a bit of ooze, lovely salty tannic fruit finish. Excellent with sausages, mustard, and caramelized onions.
