My Review: When sniffing this wine, I smelled an overwhelming raspberry aroma. I also caught a small whiff of something like vanilla. On the palate, this wine didn't display much. The taste was very mild, with no real flavors standing out. It was light, and slightly dry while somehow still being smooth. This wine was tasted on its own without food.
Winery Review: "50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre. 56 Ha grown organically since March 2009 (in conversion). Part of the vineyard is plowed with horses. Average age of the vines : 30 years old. Clear ruby wine with overtones of red berry fruits. Round and supple with smooth aftertaste. A good all round red wine for meat courses, poultry and light cheeses. Best drunk now while fresh with good keeping up to 4 years."
