Tasting Notes
Grenache and Syrah are a marriage made in heaven. With the Syrah here bringing dark fruit to the palate, and savory, smoky elements to the nose, and the Grenache lending elegant aromatic floral notes, and bright fruit on the palate, it's just undeniable - enjoy with the best of company.
Pairing Suggestion
A fabulous barbecue wine, the sweetness of the fruit here makes it a great foil for dishes like ribs and pulled pork, although if you'd want something a bit classier, some duck in a dark reduction with pommes purées will be equally delicious. Vegetarians can enjoy next to charred fare with big flavors - a whole Cauliflower head with tahini is going to be excellent.
