Garnet color. Aromas and flavors of baked blood orange, spiced plum, and black tea with mint with a satiny, dry full body and a long finish that shows touches of tart red berries, black tea, and eucalyptus. Surprisingly light and nimble for a GSM blend but absolutely delightful and will make a fun food pairing.

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.
