Rated vintages

  • 200886 pts

    Lean red fruit and sweet spice aromas lead the way on the bouquet of this blend, made from 45% Syrah, 30% Mourvèdre, 10% Grenache and 15% Carignan. The palate offers more of the same, with a lean structure and a surpringly sweet finish.

  • 200686 pts

    A somewhat simple though well-balanced wine with scents of baby powder, cocoa dust, black cherry and raspberry. The palate shows a bit more heft with notes of purple flowers and soft plum guts. Juicy and approachable with soft tannins and a medium-length finish.
