Prior to purchase, I knew nothing of this winery. The wine is being marketed as similar in style to a Spanish Grenacha which for me is a practically meaningless reference since I have had very few Spanish wines. The wine is dark strawberry in color. Pleasant aromatics. On the palate, this is somewhere between a Bandol rose and a youthful CDP. Strawberries, minerals and clove. Better on day 2 as it had shed some of its initial harshness. Didn't know …
