Orin Swift Cellars

Abstract Grenache Blend 2023

Dark ruby in color.

Fruity nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries and chocolates notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with black currants, blackberries, plums, cooked cherries, tobacco leaf, herbs, caramel and black pepper.

Medium length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This young Grenache blend from California is drinking very nicely now. Nicely balanced and elegant. Complex and easy drinking.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with some airtime.

I used to love this wine years ago and haven't tried it in 5 years. It's not that exciting to me anymore, but still good.

A nice sipping wine that will also pair nicely with a burger.

A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Petite Sirah. Aged for 10 months in (30% new) French Oak barrels.

15.3% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$40.
