One of the best Grenaches I've ever had. Light and elegant, yet full of attack and strength. Gorgeous fruit that wasn't cloying at all.

gracefully delicious for a light bodied wine, a brilliant ruby color. warming but not burning to the palate

Grenache, particularly CA Grenache, isn't usually my thing. Except that @Angela Osborne manages to make something so delicate yet rich, with all the pretty red fruit and palate weight and none of the booziness. FWIW, my experience is that these gain a ton of complexity with more cellar time - this is just a baby.

Such deep, pure Grenache flavors without being blowsy or palate fatiguing. I could, and do, drink lots of Grenache like this.

Such elegance! Rubies and intensely red fruited. @Angela Osborne, a royal gem. @Wolfgang Weber the court perter.

Boom! Even at the entry level, angela's wines pack so much onto such a lithe frame. Best CA Grenaches I've ever had.
