Interesting wine in that it sees no oak, well certainly nothing new, thus allowing the wine to be an expression of its fruit and constituent parts.
Suggest that there's a significant portion of whole berry on this wine, a further nod to its Southern Rhone origins. Requisite raspbery and red fruit elements form the Grenache (58%) with the Mataro (32%) offering some depth and intrigue. Tobacco leaf, more earth and a bit of meatiness; juice and pepper.
Overall there's a good flow of fruit with a light frame of tannin as you might expect from a Grenache dominant wine. Balanced and as you'd expect from Kym Teusner, very well made. Very Good - 92
