Grignan-les-Adhémar
The 2021 Grignan-les-Adhémar, from the southern Rhône, is an intensely fruity wine (80/20 Grenache and Syrah). It showcases ripe red berries, with hints of succulent herbs, white pepper and just a note of dusty tannins. Decant and drink now or wait at least three years. $15.00 (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, November 2022)

Nov 10th, 2022A grenache-syrah blend that is excellent value. Restrained fruit, high acidity, full-bodied and firm tannic grip. Worth waiting a few years to open (2021).

Aug 8th, 2024Black fruit colour. Inviting open nose: blackberries, blueberries, strawberry, pepper, garrigue, herbales notes of undergrowth, and slightly truffled evolution. A touch of ageing between vanilla and smoke completes the bouquet well. In the mouth, no defect. It’s balanced from one end to the other. The complexity is relative to the price range of this wine. The final is honourable letting a well-mixed tannin/freshness tandem expresses. To drink now.
Robe fruits noires. Nez ouvert, invitant: mûres, myrtilles, fraise, poivre, garrigue, et des notes végétales d’évolution sous-bois et légèrement truffées. Une pointe d’élevage entre vanille et fumée complète bien le bouquet. En bouche aucun défaut c’est équilibré d’un bout à l’autre. La complexité est relative à la gamme de prix de ce vin. La finale est honorable laissant s’exprimer un tandem tanin/fraîcheur bien mêlés. À boire maintenant.
