This wine, made from organically-grown grapes, was OK, but that's it. Made of roughly equal parts Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Color: Dark black ruby with purply highlights.
Nose: Medium intensity nose of scorched earth, sweet cream, and ripe blackberries and grapes.
Mouth: Ripe, but tight and peppery, and a bit tannic. Flavors of grapes and hard cherry candy, with steely minerals underneath.
Cellar or drink?: While the color looks youthful, I don‘t think this one‘s got the stuffing to improve much, if at all. Drink now.
Score: 83.
Price/store: Was $15 at Spec's on Richmond.
