How is a 12 so balanced and pure?! Black pepper, lamb on BBQ, some savory green herbs. So pure in mid palate. Fresh dark cherry with nimble & clean finish that has wisp of smoke at very end. Very nice...

Definitely a lot of dark fruit and some leather, a touch of wild gaminess. Obvious black pepper and something herbal

We've finally accepted the fact that Northern Rhone and Priorat are our comfort wines. #wheelhouse

A lovely wine, surprisingly spritely. Blackberry and cracked pepper. Pairs great with steak and mushrooms. That said, $25 is about $10 more than I think it merits.

Translucent dark purple colour with wild blackberry bouquet that has a hint of white pepper. Smooth texture with plums, some dark cherry and some red currant jam on the palate. Pleasant enough but for me lacked a certain depth.
