Expert Reviews:
“This is splendidly ripe and perfumed with dark berry, vanilla, olive, and cedar notes, leading to a plush mouthfeel that’s succulent and mouth-filling. Gorgeously harmonious with a lengthy velvety finish.”
- Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
“Deep red, there are notes of strawberries and other red fruits. There is a lovely creamy coffee character to all this. Attractive florals. Furthermore, the wine is a mid-weight style, which is carried by some fresh underlying acidity, this seems to be very much Grenache-dominant at the moment. Time might see the other grapes contribute as well. A lighter, fresher style of GSM, which is delicious. Good value.”
