GSM 2021

August 2024 Red Wine of the Month

We are delighted to unveil a new addition to our Classic Collection: the GSM blend. This sophisticated blend, a hallmark of the Côtes du Rhône region, marks our first venture into this celebrated style, offering a refined experience that we are thrilled to share with you.

The GSM blend features a harmonious mix of three grapes: Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. Grenache offers a burst of fruitiness and juiciness, Syrah contributes depth and complexity, and Mourvèdre adds a rich structure. Together, these grapes create a wine with vibrant, juicy flavors and a beautifully complex profile.

We invite you to explore and enjoy this new release with grilled meats, aged cheeses, or a grilled veggie sandwich!
