Ruby red colour with blue reflections. Intense and frank nose, with ripe and fresh red fruits. Sweet spices, coriander. Tasty and delicious attack. The mid-palate is well in place, with richness and tension. The tannins are soft and well-integrated. Notes of ripe candied fruit, sweet pepper and licorice.
Blend: 40% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 40% Mourvèdre
Critical Acclaim
V91
Vinous
Deep garnet. Cherry, black raspberry, licorice, succulent herbs and a hint of smoked meat on the spice-accented nose. Chewy and expansive on the palate, offering juicy dark fruit and floral pastille flavors that show good energy and back-end lift. The spicy note recurs on a long, smooth finish that features even tannins and a lingering bitter cherry note.

Moving to the reds and a total charmer, the 2018 Châteauneuf du Pape Tradition from Fortia sports a medium ruby, nearly translucent color to go with incredible Provençal aromas of dried cherries, dried strawberries, peppery garrigue, spice, and assorted floral nuances. It’s medium-bodied, clean, well-balanced, and already hard to resist. Enjoy bottles over the coming decade.

Wine Spectator
Sleek and fresh, with bitter plum and red currant fruit notes that are tightly focused, while light sanguine, rose petal, red tea and mineral hints chime throughout. Not big, but nicely persistent.
