WineDiva's Review

Inky, supple, fresh. An inky red with purple glints made from Grenache and Syrah.
Overall it's an earthy wine with attractive aromas of black plums and cherries, smoked brown spices, finely ground pepper, cocoa and garrigue. Savoury and intense with black fruit, espresso and bittersweet chocolate flavours layered with smoked meat. Supple and fresh and bordering on brooding; a good wine for grilled proteins, aged goat cheeses and hearty mushroom or bean dishes.
Available in BCLS July, 2020.

Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Cheese - Goat, Eat your Root Veggies, French Food
