Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceRich gamy, leather, resiny, licorice aromas with black raspberry jam. Lots of peppery, smoky, licorice black raspberry jam flavours that are quite typical of grenache with a some dry, tight tannins in the background that have yet to disperse. Grilled meats and/or time will help this wine settle down. It's made from 70% grenache, 22% carignan and 8% mourvèdre.Tasted: 24 July 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $17.90 | 750ml | Specialty |
