This one is interesting. 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and the rest Mourvedre and Cinsault. A huge, dark, brawny wine that has a very interesting and intriguing nose. Black fruit, iodine notes, leather, earth. Massive on the palate and very plush in its style. Despite the massive fruit, there is zero heat in the wine, and it's drinking well, although it clearly needs either a lot of air or a few years in bottle. Finish is just a touch clipped for my taste. All in all, a good value it it can be found for less than $25.
