Shavings of roasted chestnut, leather and crushed peppercorn lend savory nuance to piercing black cherry and plum in this silky, complex Grenache-Syrah blend (augmented by small proportions of Carignan and Mourvèdre). Tasted in summer 2021, it's not a youthful, jammy fruit bomb, but rather, a harmony of fruit against a backdrop of earth, animal and umami elements. Soft in tannin and freshly balanced, it's lovely now but should hold through 2025 at least.
