Dark garnet color. Aromas of roasted walnuts, clay, currant and pomegranate compote, and baking chocolate barbalsamic glaze with a silky, bright, fruity medium-to-full body and an even, interesting, medium-long berry cobbler, vanilla coconut milk, cocoa nibs, and cinnamon finish with fine, chewy tannins and light oak flavor. A warm and inviting red blend with an artful balance of ripe fruit and toasty oak.

A GSM Red Blend is composed of the grapes Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre (hence the G, S, and M) that define the style of Cotes du Rhone wine. This blend typically exhibits ripe, bright fruit and an herbaciousness that showcases the varietals, and is one of the top wine blends of the world.
