Tasting Notes:
Monte De Oro's Rhone / GSM (Grenache / Mourvedre / Syrah) blend is a crisp, satiny, dryish light-to-medium bodied wine with well-integrated, medium tannins, alcohol and acidity. It has aromas of dried cherries, pencil shavings, strawberry shortcake and a smooth, breezy fudgesicle. It has a very nice, subtle spice component that appears halfway through the second sip. It offers a light, dry, lingering taste on the tongue with a mellowness on the end. This is a fresh and fruity red with great versatility.
