(Notes for the 2021 vintage)
California
fruity
great finale
surprising

"A surprising blend of Carignan and Mourvèdre, with fruity aromas and a sumptuous finish!"

An atypical wine from California! Fruity and spicy aromas, silky tannins, and a certain je ne sais quoi that makes it sumptuous. An untamable wine, just as its name suggests!
