WineDiva's Review

Fragrant, plush, NEW.
This new product arrived just last month, in July, and has added a crackling opportunity for those looking for something fresh, but from an Old World region.
Made from Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan, it leads with notes of rich mocha and plum cake, cherry jam and pipe tobacco, exotic spices and fragrant botanicals. The palate is somewhat more restrained but shows lovely balance; spice, tobacco and wild fruit lounges on a plush palate.
A divine alternative to your everyday red.
