2009 Maison Bleue Gravière

This wine is just fantastic. I am still working hard to find a wine from Maison Bleue that I don't absolutely love. This Rhone blend (50% Syrah, 25% Grenache, and 25% Mouvedre) is super balanced and a pleasure to drink. It hails from Snipes Mountain in the Yakima Valley. First sip impressions include a lot of berries, plum and licorice - perfect for a sipping at the end of a long warm day. 195 cases produced.

Julie's take: Outstanding!
