Jeb Dunnuck
“A Grenache-dominant blend that captures the very essence of the appellation’s four terroirs!”
“A beautiful nose of soft, crushed red fruits, spices, and garrigue. The palate is juicy, with notes of leather, black tea, and a pronounced alcohol presence. The finish is marked by a hint of toasted oak. Round, heady, and dense, it will be superb once the oak has integrated.” (Jancis Robinson)

About the wine:
A beautiful nose of soft, crushed red fruits, spices, and garrigue. The palate is juicy, with notes of leather, black tea, and a pronounced alcohol presence. The finish is marked by a hint of toasted oak. Round, heady, and dense, it will be truly lovely once the oak has integrated.
