87 pts. Wine Spectator: October 15, 2008
Forward, with tasty dark fig and blackberry fruit mixed in with notes of mocha, fruitcake and sweet tobacco. A nice dash of grip on the finish keeps this honest. Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache. Drink now.

Katherine Able: April 4, 2009
The simple wines that come from the Rhône region of France are some of my favorites. This red blend is 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre. The winemakers allow the grapes to breathe out and the use of oak barrels is restricted as much as possible. This brings out the fruit and creates a structured but subtle, easy-drinking wine. Serve with blackened salmon or barbecued or grilled chicken.
