Herman Story
Late Bloomer Grenache
In magnum. Still one of my faves from Russ and always fun to tell the story (wine club gets to submit grade school photo and if you win, you get to be on every bottle for the vintage). lol. 100% Grenache from Paso. 15.8% ABV so drink responsibly.

Mar 28th, 202112’ Harmon Story Late Bloomer. Wine nerd herd virtual tasting. Rusty red in the glass. This Grenache is without a doubt on the lighter style. Aromas of red cherry, salt & pepper, leather.
Palate- It’s very clean. No bumps in the road. Blueberries, blackberries lavender & toasty. Seamless in texture. Finishing off with nice floral notes.

Aug 4th, 201912' I'm amazed how complex this is . 45 min decant. Dark black raspberry, cured meats, spicy black jam. The back of the palate is finishing with such elegance . I'm wanting another glass . Enjoy this wine in the next 5/7 years.

Nov 21st, 2015This is Herman Storys Grenache aged for three years in oak. Ultra expressive and flavour packed with all grenache characteristic turn on to max. Some tertiary notes at this stage and I would not cellar this any further. It’s a nice combination of fun and serious at the same time.
