One of our favorite Grenache slash Grenache Blends out of California. Especially because of how different it is to the usual wine made with this varietal. This blend is 88% Grenache and 12% Syrah. Deep ruby red core. Some Syrah characteristics on the nose, caramel, maple smoked bacon and bark as well as some perfume and floral notes from the Grenache. High tannins (8/10) and moderate body covered with a ton of dark fruits. Attack is so smooth leveled with a punch in the finish. Tannins carry through with long and lingering finish. Absolutely delicious and will definitely continue to purchase these wines from Grant! Drink till 2030.

Grant knows how to make wine! Awesome guy and wishing him success with his new property. Never thought I would go to Cali and come home with Grenache. Purple hue with smokey sweetness on the nose with some floral. Let it open up and I smelled cucumber. Medium body with nice tannins. The blend with Syrah rounds it out nicely. Superb wine!
