Shop Review: "85 Points – Wine Enthusiast
A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 20% Carignan.
Deep red garnet color with purple highlights. Intense nose of morello cherry,
tobacco and liquorice. Good structure on the palate with lots of fruits and a
long fruity and spicy finish. A true delight." - Vintage Cellar
My Review: I am not typically a fan of red wine, but I found this one to be tolerable. It was definitely not as dry as some of the other ones that I have tasted, but there was still a bite to it. I would not personally purchase this wine because I didn't find it to be fruity enough. I could definitely taste the liquorice accents in this wine, which is probably one of the main reasons I was not a super fan.
Food: I drank this wine at the Vintage Wine Cellar tasting, so I was unable to pair any foods to this wine.
