57% Grenache, 35% Mourvèdre, 8% Syrah
Upland and Olsen Vineyards

94 Points (Sean Sullivan, Washington Wine Report)
91 Points (Vinous)

La Fraternité pronounces bright red fruit from the moment you pull the cork.  This Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah blend is a lively wine with layered aromas and flavors of strawberries, raspberries, kirsch, violets, and spice.  On the palate, these flavors wrap around a silky medium body with a smooth, fresh, and lingering finish.  This wine pairs nicely with roasted chicken, grilled pork, Ahi tuna, and salmon dishes.
