Tasting Note:April 6, 2016

Grabbed this to have with Turkish food. Actually had a chicken shish kebab. Excellent decision. Dark ruby red with blue hues. A little dirty on the nose with some prune notes. Beautiful tart berries, blue and red ones on the palate. Slight crisp pinch near the finish. Smooth and delicious. Moderate plus tannins and acidity (7.5/10). Long finish with the tart acidity and low to moderate body. Very surprised and need to seek out more of these!

This wine is made of 98% Cinsault and 2% Syrah. Additionally this was bottle number 116/2280.
