"Deep ruby-violet color. The Mediterranean-style nose reveals notes of ripe black fruit, blackcurrant, black pepper, thyme and rosemary. The classic, warm, toasty palate offers luscious acidity on a fruity backdrop." (Le Guide des Vins 2016 - Gilbert & Gaillard)

nice discovery. I knew neither the aoc nor the monastrell grape variety. The fruit dominates and the Syrah brings out the sweetness of the spice.
