Yooooo. The fact that Eben can make Grenache taste like this is just wild.

Once again the South African phantom Eben Sadie is showing what great fruit and honest wine making will give you in the glass. So dense and intense, yet translucent and elegant. Layered, with a slight but well placed and interesting earthy funkiness. An impressive length, fully balanced and just beautiful! Day 2 and the wine is singing!

What an unusual wine. Yes, it is well done and as described by previous reviewers. I'm a bit on the fence as to whether or not I would purchase another bottle.

Mar 12th, 20172015 in 8/ 25.. very elegant style. Not sure I've had Grenache like this before esp new world. 13%, more savory than fruity tho coming to room temp from cellar helped fruit display better....best in AP vs Bdx, Burg stems. Maybe should have drank a yr sooner???
