The wine is Sucette, an Australian Grenache from An Approach to Relaxation, a new venture spearheaded by Carla Rzeszewski, late of a few high profile NYC booze programs. Intensity from start to finish. Nervy, brilliant, deep, and concentrated. A special wine. 2014. 14% abv. $60.

A little hot, pleasant but kind of uninteresting for the price point and the hype.

Sleek, complex, and elegant. Fresh as a spring day but also has the substance to sit for several years. Balanced with delightful concentration. Should be sold only in magnums. Or foudres. Delicious. Love this wine. $59. Winery. 14.5% abv.
