winemaker's notes:

The blend is 70% Syrah, 20% Grenache and 10% Carignan, and in 2009 the grapes were as ripe as they could be. Mocha and chocolate notes pick up a touch of prune. With its superripe fruit, ample weight, lush texture and warm finish, grounded by notes of leather and forest floor.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%

critical acclaim:

"The blend is 70% Syrah, 20% Grenache and 10% Carignan, and in 2009 the grapes were as ripe as they could be. Mocha and chocolate notes pick up a touch of prune. With its superripe fruit, ample weight, lush texture and warm finish, there are valid concerns about its ageability, but this offers hedonistic drinking for an affordable price. Editors' Choice"

This surprisingly complex wine starts out with fairly bright almost sweet tasting fruit, then progresses to a deep, dry mouth filling blast of dark fruitiness, after which dry but not at all astringent tannin comes up, the finish is quite long for a wine in this price range. Worth the retail of $17, but an astounding deal at $8!!

What a fun French wine with lots of zest and loco. At a bargain price.
