Review: The back label calls this “Rouge fruité”; and it’s exactly as described, from 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Cinsaut. This offers a classic Grenache nose of crushed cherries and damsons, and then a deliciously forward, supple juicy gulp of raspberries and cherries, with a charming liqueur hint and a lovely perfumed finish.
My Review: This wine had a pretty distinct nose, very fruity. However, I didn't really enjoy it. The fruit flavors seemed a little off/unbalanced to me. I'd give this wine a 4 on the delightful scale.
