GOOD not great. A little hot and flat. Needs a little more distinguished character. Soft black fruits.

The nose reminds me of Spain. On the palate - cloves, licorice, baked strawberries, cherries, herbs and spice. Very tannic. Enjoyable, but not loving it the way I usually love our wines. Hmm. #drycreekvalley #grenache #mataro #mourvedre

Big fan of draper. However this cuvée wasn't my preference. Too much fruit. Alcohol was still noticeably high

OK, but a bit too much American oak for my taste

2013 #delicious and rewarding considering the youth of the vines. Earthy black fruit and spice. Built, but perhaps a bit awkward at the moment.

Like the weight and fruits the Zinfandel and Petite Sirah give to the wine.

Great tasting Grenache. Not as full body as I expected, but certainly chewy and good!
