An unconventional Tannat-driven blend with Petite Sirah and Montepulciano playing back up offers an alluring brightness. Dusty violet notes back aromas of tart blackberry, mint and stony minerality. The palate is a melange of berry fruits, tayberries, and raspberry flavours mingle with ripe red plums and blue notes. The finish is brightened by excellent acidity, fresh white peppercorn notes and a gravelly mineral character.
