An organically grown blend of grenache, shiraz and mourvèdre that wafts unmistakable grenache strawberry-cherry jam with a hint
of mourvèdre’s typical blueberry and mint,
as well as shiraz’s peppery spice. Full-bodied and soft, it’s a touch sweet, yet rich and warm. Excellent focus and length, with moderate
bitterness and warmth. The fact that Salena grows its grapes organically seals the deal. Vintages. LCBO 68908
