Product Description
James Suckling ReviewRated 94
Lifted fruit profile of dark cherries complemented by aromas of red currants and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, chewy tannins and notes of pomegranates, cranberries and potpourri. Very energetic and bright, with serious tannins and aging capacity. Made from 44% grenache, 33% syrah, 19% cournoise and 4% mourvedre. Drink or hold.
Wine Tasting Notes
A pretty nose that speaks clearly of Mourvedre in its elderberry and blackcurrant fruit and its eucalyptus and soy marinade umami notes. On the palate, black cherry and musky mulberry fruit, new leather, and a loamy richness that suggests a lovely meaty note will develop with time. The firm but ripe tannins maintain order and lead to a long, spicy finish. This is an Esprit that will drink well young, but don't let this trick you into thinking it won't have the stuffing to age. Enjoy any time in the next 20-25 years.
