Wine Advocate 90: Robe: deep with violet highlights. Nose: complex griotte cherry, violet and licorice. 1st taste refreshing with blackcurrant aromas. Palate: rich and fleshy with velvety tannins, lovely well balanced wine with long ending and moka notes. Ready to taste but can be kept for 5 to 7 years in good conditions.

Tradition Rouge is a blend of 40% Syrah, 40% Grenache noir, 10% Mourvèdre, and 10% Carignan.
