2008 Vintage Tasting Notes

Syncline Grenache/Carignan 08 - For seekers of adventure, we have produced a lively and fun red blend. With this limited bottling, we offer a wine of great personality. You will find it loaded with pomegranate, cherry and raspberry aromas and flavors, topped with sweet baking spices, finished with a juicy, yet refined texture. Itʼs easy to find you have finished the bottle and are wondering - is it ok to open up another ? - go for it. Weʼll keep making more. This wine reminds us of the wonderful Rhone Villages table wines you are served at restaurants during the mandatory two hour lunch break when in Provence, France. Great food matches are: a diversity of slow roasted meats like chicken, turkey, quail, rabbit, frog legs, root vegetable beef stew and ham - or, have it as we do - with lunch!
