2016 - Very fleshed, ripe, juicy aromas of pomegranate, plum, blackberry, balsamic strawberry, violet and kirsh. Those same fruits pervade the palate with an inky intensity, juicy enough to sink your teeth into with a long, plush finish. This delightful Rhone blend is a plain enjoyment to drink on its own, yet a fun, versatile wine for a mixed cheese/meat board, bacon wrapped dates, wild boar meatballs, or slow cooked barbecue ribs.
