title: L'Ptit Paysan 2012 Le P'tit Pape Red (San Benito County)
description: Ian Brand's fun and wallet-friendly blend of 53% Grenache, 28% Syrah and 19% Mourvèdre offers an interesting nose of charred beef, anise, beets, red rose petals, hints of purple fruit and a judicious touch of asphalt. The dark flavors of black licorice, black pepper, pencil lead and dried violets surround a boysenberry core, but remain light on the palate.
variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
designation: Le P'tit Pape
