Tènébres (GSM) 2021


Intense deep purple hue with aromas of rose petals, dark fudge, and rich ripe blackberries and the slightest note of cinnamon.

Palate--Silky first impression with relaxed tannins, and loads of nice dark fruit, blackberry pie, and maybe a touch of blueberries.

This is a blend of the three classic Rhone wine grapes consisting of 40% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 30% Mourvedre. The color is due to the Syrah grape which is always intense in its vibrant color. This is a "jammy" wine if you ever wondered what someone meant by this.  It is full of fruit and truly reminds you of blackberry pie.

Another Trader Joe's super value wine at $7 and it is a really easy drinking creation with character aso raise a glass!
