Exotically spiced perfume of red fruit, meat, and wood. Still fresh and lively, but more integrated and seamless than I last remember. Superb.

#GrenacheDay The bigger, darker, bolder, juicier side of Grenache. Still showing a nice earthy note in the mix.

Back to the 1st vintage for Rudius. Recently found three more, so pulled my last home bottle. Decision affirmed. This is in a great place right now.
