Magisterial color, raven dark with a thin pink-purple rim offering a glint of scrutability. A healthy nose of bacon rind, lavender, and parched garrigue, Mourvèdre tapenade, too, and a basket of plush black fruit. The fruit, indeed, holds sway on the palate, griotte, myrtle, and blueberry, the savory dexterity of the nose held in check, primary and instantly seductive, tannins almost too ripe to coat the mouth, raspberries and sunshine, poised between flamboyance and all the signs of being a more than satisfactory evolution. | 94
