Calcareous Tres Violet

The nose shows dark cherries, raspberries and a hint of mocha chocolate resulting in rich Rhone aromas. Cinnamon and spicy fullness in the mid-palate, with a generous, yet soft and lingering finish. The composition of the newly released '06 is somewhat richer than any of our previous vintages. Now with 64% Syrah, 23% Grenache and 13% Mourvedre this makes for a layered complex wine, but certainly not lacking a sense of stylish structure. This is Calcareous and Paso Robles Rhone at its best. Enjoy now or cellar 3-5 years. Decanting recommended.
