Lightly corked, so no rating. Good fruit and structure, but the underlying TCA notes made this a no-go for me.

P&P; flavors of plum and cracked pepper, with some nice black tea tannins and acidity. Finish is long and sweet. Good stuff! Drink now - 2028.

Great wine! Definitely grenache dominant. Had with salmon. A little tannic in the finish when first opened, but that softened quickly. Goes to show how blending with different wines and even vintages can result in a wine that is better than the sum of parts.

medium ruby; spiced plums, leather, beef blood, cracked pepper, smoke; juicy red and black fruits; 15.1% ABV; blend of 61% Grenache, 35% Syrah, and 4% Mourvèdre, 1st lot of the non-vintage blend; good value for Bien Nacido fruit at $32

Popped and poured through a vinturri. Medium plum-crimson in colour. Nose of ripe plums and blackberries with a hint of beef blood. On the palate, there are spiced cherries and blackberries ending with some black peppers. Medium+ bodied with a medium finish. Excellent qpr with the discount.

Great wine, particularly for a NV blend. Big red berry and fig fruit, nice earthiness and touches of white pepper. Really good stuff, for a steal! Drink now - 2030.
