Perfumy and ripe, this red oozes soft black currant and lavender, showing a polished texture. A bitter mineral flash provides contrast, with mesquite, incense and singed garrigue on the lush finish. A spine of iron brings structure and drives the impressive length. There’s a lot to love. Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah and Cinsault. Drink now through 2038.
