2010 Grenache from Paso Robles. Black cherry with oak and spice and a bit of lavender. Well rounded tannins and nice finish.

Decanting helped. Full bodied, grippy tannins, but still some good fruit. Definitely feel the 15.5%.

Takes time to develop so dont rush it. Transforms beautifully.

Yum. Some fruitiness. Very gentle drinking while having good flavor.

Transparent burgundy with orange tinged halo in the glass. On the nose, one detects dark cherry, black pepper, and barely a hint of floral notes. The dark cherries reappear in the mouth with a bit of smoky sweet complexity and medium tannins. Finish lingers a little. I’d say it is quite a nice versatile wine.
