"Intense, fresh and vibrant, with rich, full-bodied beefy currant, pepper, spice and leathery herb scents that are well-focused and persistent, ending with firm tannins. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2013. 148 cases made."

"Alta Mesa Vineyard’s Mourvedre and Grenache grow on decomposed granite, gneiss, schist, basalt and clay loam at 3200 feet above sea level. Superb clonal selection, tight spacing, huge day/night temperature differentials and meticulous vineyard work produce grapes that yield vibrant, complex and compelling wines. Les Galets Vineyard, in one of the coolest growing regions in the state a mere 4 miles from the ocean. Calcareous and volcanic soils and south facing slope combine to produce grapes that yield supple and concentrated wines."
