Notes | "A new discovery from the importer Eric Solomon, this 37-acre -property owned by German film producer Reinhard Brundig has produced a fruity, upfront and extroverted blend of equal parts Syrah, Grenache and Mourvedre, aged six months in a combination of concrete tanks and stainless-steel vats. The wine is elegant, showing notes of earth, berry fruit, roasted herbs and loamy soil undertones. It is a medium-bodied, spicy, early-drinking style. Consume it over the next year."
