Halos de Jupiter Côtes du Rhône 2022

A direct and racy version, with steeped cherry and red tea augmented by floral perfume and a subtle kiss of vanilla and smoked sandalwood. Fresh, with graphite-laced tannins that drive energy. Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah. Drink now [through 2028+]. Score – 89. (Kristen Bieler, winespectator.com, March 31, 2024)
