2021 The Return
52% Grenache, 28% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah
Blackberry preserves and caramelized plum greet the nose while nuance of English lavender and root beer soda quietly follow. The balanced palate offers a foundation of firm tannin and soft acidity. Blueberry strudel and fresh fig are highlighted by All-Spice and the slightest whispers of Creme de Menthe. Pebble like minerality, black olive and pink peppercorn leave lasting impressions.% Mourvedre, 38% Grenache and 20% Syrah
A seamless blend that exudes a kaleidoscope of red and dark fruit elements ranging from strawberry fields to baked blueberry. Fine-grained tannin cascade over the palate staging dimensions of spiced black cherry, cranberry crumble, vanilla latte and Herbs de Provence. Underscored by a punchy acidity, the finish is seasoned with nuances of clove tobacco, pink peppercorn and a dash of blood orange pith.

Lovely aromas of baked cherry, vanilla and chai spice show on the nose of this blend of 52% Grenache, 28% Mourvèdre and 20% Syrah. The palate pairs that appealing red cherry core with hints of mesquite and baking spice. —Matt Kettmann
