Note di degustazione
The Southern Rhône blend is the 2016 Metier Red Blend, which is 42% Grenache and 36% Mourvèdre, with the balance Cinsault. Violets, peppery spice, cedar, and sweet black raspberry fruits all emerge from the glass and it’s ripe, rounded, and medium to full-bodied on the palate. There’s some subtle background oak, but this is upfront and ready to go.

(made in a high percentage of large-format oak, with none of the casks younger than four years old; Beaucastel is the model for this wine, according to winemaker Gorski): Dark red with ruby highlights. Aromas of blackberry, licorice and tree bark, plus a spicy nuance. Combines compelling spicy intensity and serious thickness of texture, with its red berry and spice flavors showing virtually no greenness. Concentrated, broad, rich and long, finishing with substantial dusty tannins. Incidentally, the team did not make this wine with whole clusters. "We don't like stems, but we did include some in our 2016 Syrah," noted Gorski.
