from klwines.com: The source of the fruit for the Palombieres bottling is a vineyard located on the edge of a small forest where many palombières, or small thatch hunting blinds, are used by the local bird hunters. The vines here were planted in the early 1970s. The grenache is vinified in tank while the mourvèdre finishes fermentation and is aged in barrels for up to one year. Offers up bold flavors of blackberries, pepper and spice, with hints of toast and earth, this big wine is complete and expressive, with complex structured flavors. 80% grenache and 20% mourvèdre.
