2012 Vintage. 15.7% Alcohol. Blend of 71% Syrah, 28% Mourvèdre, 1% Viognier. Lovely blend and the Viognier adds to the bouquet.

2012 Vintage. 15.7% Alcohol. 71% Syrah, 28% Mourvèdre, 1% Viognier. Very good showing for this wine. Fruit bomb with enough to hide the alcohol.

Wonderful Rhône style red from Paso. 71% Syrah, 28% Mourvèdre, 1% Viognier. Smokey plum and blackberry on the nose. Blackberry pie, cinnamon and a hint of sage. Not jammy and not dry. Tons of depth. Lovely

A bit of heat that was out of balance for me. Have liked others from this winery better.

Drinking well now. Very much in the Rhone style. With hints of the tar and leather. I really enjoyed this bottle.

The authenticity did wonders with the 2012 varietal - hints of cocoa and cassis with ripe fruit and tannins.

It takes a lot of wine to make the science presented by this crazy Frenchman seem interesting.

Blackberries, smoked herb, full-body, go nicely with food at Gather.
