Cherry barnyard hay nose. Delicate light red fruit on the palate lengthy finish. But... as eating spicy sausage and it was already overpowering the flavors. Will revisit later.

Trader Joe's CDP? Classic Chateauneuf du Poop French stinky thing layered over muted aging stewey red fruit. Stemmy. But a great value. "Le Fiacre du Pape" - "the pope's carriage," in case you were curious.

This is a young Grenache blend from the South of France.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, cherries, currants, earth, wood, spices, light vanilla, vegetables, tobacco, black coffee, bitter herbs and peppercorn.
