Jancis Robinson
"Aromas of blackberries, black plums, bark, and dried spices. Full-bodied with firm tannins. Textured on the palate with a hint of blackberry. Slightly chewy, but the overall balance remains. Dried herbs on the compact, spicy finish. 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre. Made from organically grown grapes. Best after 2023.” (James Suckling 2023)

About the wine:
Floral, lovely, and crisp, with lovely fruit purity. The palate is supple, with well-balanced acidity, fruit, and tannins. Well done for such a challenging vintage. It’s far better than most others and will age longer than most 2021s. Fermented in concrete tanks, aged for 12 months in barrels, with no new oak.

Rated: Recommended
About the wine:
Tasted blind. A juicy, ripe nose of cherries and plums. A hint of dried fig on the palate, along with blackberry, licorice, and a good concentration of dark fruits. A ripe, rich, and robust style.
