93 Points - Wine Spectator
"Supple and elegantly complex, with vivid raspberry, violet, garrigue and crushed stone accents that bloom, taking on density toward fine-grained tannins. Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah. Drink now through 2028. 1,300 cases made." Tim Fish, Senior Editor, Napa

-----------------

Très Violet is our Estate’s take on a traditional Rhone style red wine. By combining the depth and richness of Syrah, spice and leather from Mourvedre with bright fruit elegance of Grenache, we can produce a multifaceted yet cohesive wine. In this way the Très Violet is perhaps the fullest expression of our Estate.

Tasting Notes
Brilliant dark violet hues show off the appearance of a nicely extracted Rhone blend.   Bright and exuberant blackberry, cola nut and dried cherry are balanced by loam and exhilarating acidity.  The body builds over time as the rich tannins from aging in French oak tanks build a complex finish that would  pair perfectly with grilled lamb or even slow cooked pork shoulder.
