Black plum and blackberry liqueur on the nose and concentration of flavour on the palate. Tannic, brooding and dark. Required decanting 1-2 hours and a brontosaurus burger. A blend of Grenache and Syrah grapes. Rustic on the finish. Produced by Valérie Collomb, Proprietor.-récolt.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
