A blend of Syrah, Grenache & Carignan. Totally opaque inky black core with a deep dark purple red hue. The nose offers up intriguing scents of black cherries interlaced with a touch of liquorice, pepper and graphite also present. Medium weight the palate is tightly constructed yielding flavours of black cherries and liquorice infused with graphite followed by some subtle dried meats, black olive and pepper. Dry, slightly chewy tannins give the wine a rustic mouthfeel. Aftertaste of black cherries, graphite infusions, liquorice, subtle black olive and pepper.
