100% Grenache. Medium ruby color, medium aromas of bright red fruit, very elegant with a sweet strawberry impression. Very good balance. Medium tannin, well-balanced alcohol and fruit. 14%abv

Black fruit, savory spice and stony minerality. Zippy acid too, well done!

100% Grenache. Soft and supple. Blackberries and blood orange. Slight minerality and cured meats. Nice and smooth. Not tons of complexity.

Nice but somewhat reserved. 1hr+ decant. Medium cherry color with burnt edges. Extremely spicy. Classic CDP flavors. Medium minus depth and finish. Not bad for the price and style.

Smooth as silk , well balanced. Not much aroma. As a fan of Grenache this wine is for me. Got this at the mothership/-Zachys.

Currants, blackberries, and tannins. A little pepper and earth...delicious.
