Description
The 2016 offers a color palate of black cherry skin and iridescent purple hues as a result of considerable skin contact from Syrah in the tank, buttressed with old vine Grenache. Its nose is redolent of an intensely sanguine perfume of vibrant Mediterranean garrigue, anise, clove, stewed blueberry, cardamom, cedar and Madagascar vanilla. The wine reels with earth laden red fruits and moves deftly into a core of sweet raspberry, plum and confectioners chocolate pocked by intense savory notes. Emerging with patience and time, it seems to shape-shift in the glass offering new dimensions and savory angles of lifted woodsy spice and minerality. Pleasingly moreish, punchy tannins and a grippy texture play off a taut acidic tone that make the wine considerably appealing today but with serious potential to age for a more transportational experience.
