A 50/50 blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre, aged in 100-percent new French oak barrels for elevated expression. Drawing cool coastal energy from the Templeton Gap District, this wine displays earthy aromas of dark fruits, graphite and herbs. A rich, viscous mouthfeel reveals bittersweet chocolate notes with chewy tannins. The result is a deep-thinking wine for fans of Northern Rhônes.
