INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR – #148 – JAN/FEB 2010

(90% grenache and 5% each of mourvedre and clairette) Rubyred. Pungent smoky aromas of cherry, black raspberry, spicecake and flowers, plus a strong mineral undertone. Round and velvety on entry, the firmer in the middle, offering juicy red berry and cherry flavors with repeating smokiness. Impressively energetic on the finish, which echoes the red fruit and spice notes. I\’d keep my hands off this wine for at least another five years. (Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley CA) 91
