Very accessible at this early phase. Nice black and red fruit, floral and graphite undertones. Tasted quickly but would have loved to watch it evolve in the glass.

Jun 23rd, 2015Raspberry grenache flavours dominate with good spice and fine tannins, medium length finish. Very drinkable. Interesting to compare with Teusner’s Avatar same composition but 10% of the Syrah swapped for Cinsault. From memory the Avatar has more weight and an earthy/savouriness to it.
Southern Rhone / Cotes du Rhone; Grenache : 40%, Mourvèdre : 30%, Syrah : 20%, Cinsault : 10%, 21 euro, $29.
