Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

A blend primarily comprised of Grenache and Syrah, this wine has lovely aromas of strawberry and cherry, along with violets, dried herbs and peppery spice. Full bodied, smooth, with some medium tannins, and bright acidity on the palate. Fruit and berry flavours are ripe and rounded, and the finish is spicy. Enjoy with lamb or duck.

Natalie's Review

Juicy with red berry, plum, dried herbs, and toasty oak spice flavours on the palate. Pour with a roast leg of lamb.
