Grenache, Cinsaut, Shiraz, Mataro, co-fermented, full and firm

I grew up across the road from a famous old school winemaker who was known to be one of the best blenders of his generation. So for years I followed this ideal in the wines I was making. For a hands off winemaker, you actually feel like you are doing something! One day pondering life, the universe and everything I thought about why I hadn’t challenged this notion. grenache and friends work well together - I’ll just pick them within a few days of each other, chuck it all in one fermenter and let the ferment rock it in its own way. So my theory is that the different varieties bring something complimentary but they also bring something individual - so equal but opposite reactions in the ferment. I then remembered my high school physics and worked out it’s actually the same way a rocket works. Go figure!
Grenache based blend co-fermented with Cinsault, Shiraz and Mataro. Bright perfumed whole bunch goodness lifting the aromas and giving freshness and lift to the palate also. A classic southern Rhone blend with tremendous perfume, finesse and complexity and so gulpable. Generous and full flavoured yet not heavy. This has all the finesse the French would be proud of. Another absolute winner.
