Really great GSM. Dried, brambly red/black fruit, med + acid , med + tannin, high alcohol. Some leather and melted licorice. Really special. #sommselect

A little more volatility than I generally prefer, but the flavors are pure and expressive. Deeply concentrated. Let's see what a little air does...

This is a spectacular wine, dark berry fruit licorice texture for days. #grenache #chateauneufdupape

Only problem with this wine was that there wasn't enough of it.

A riper expression of Grenache, classic old vine, nice texture but a bit on sweet fruit end of spectrum

2020 vintage. @ Mister A's Restaurant-San Diego-Les Caves de St. Charles CDP dinner. Medium body. Leaner and meaner flavors with a hefty dollop of cracked black pepper on the finish. 11.16.23.
