Made from 87% Grenache and 13% Syrah, the 2021 Beguiling is another gorgeous wine. Black cherries, redcurrants, ground pepper, and darker, mineral, bouquet garni notes all emerge on the nose, and it hits the palate with medium to full body, a pure, layered profile, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's another absolutely captivating red from this estate that will evolve for a decade.

The 2021 Beguiling is a blend of 87% Grenache and 13% Syrah matured for 19 months in 45% new French oak. It has gregarious, youthfully dense aromas of red and black cherries and plums, pie spices and floral tones. The medium-bodied palate is youthfully coiled, with a frame of powdery tannins and seamless acidity, and it has a long, spicy finish. It will require plenty of time in bottle to unfold. 940 cases will be released in August of 2024.

Tightly focused and structured yet richly polished, with expressive raspberry and cherry flavors, while floral garrigue and savory meat notes build tension toward big but refined tannins. Grenache and Syrah. Drink now through 2033. 1,280 cases made.
