Excellent this vintage.. Drank with Cardomon rice chicken. A perfect match.
The wine is a bit round in the mouth very good cut as well. classic D and G Grenache, back to a more lithe form after the 12.

Faint lemon peel on the nose. Steely, mineral driven palate with tart grapefruit playing second fiddle...acidity in spades.
