David: 65% Grenache and the rest Syrah and Carignan. Nose reveals black cherry and black currants with spice box. Full bodied. Black cherry and dark fruits dominate on the palate with strong acidity and the familiar taste of the grenache grape. Bold tannins come on strong and go on a long way accompanied with spice. Tends towards tartness at the long ending and leaves a bit of liquorish. This took a while to open up and become more enjoyable.
Score: 3.7/5
Jessica: Found this wine too harsh and sour. Not a fan at all. Normally I do like the grenache but in this wine I did not get the sweet fruits that I normally have found. The darker fruits are present but do not shine above the bitter tannins. Spice in the nose. Did not like.
Score 2/5
