This fruity, charming red wine is made from 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache. Its gourmet nose features red fruits, spices and white pepper, as well as subtle roasted and chocolate notes. The palate is generous, with medium-bodied tannins, and finishes fresh with the support of spicy notes. Great value for money!
