Lineup of seven reds before our tasting of Sonoma Coast Pinots. Love Ed Kurtzman’s wines: Abv 14.4%

Enjoyed this expression of Grenache. Lighter yes but lively and juicy too. Had an energy to it.

Pale red in the glass. Strawberry and red raspberry in the nose. Leathery tannins on first sip with surprisingly long finish. Not as fruit forward as anticipated but a lovely easy drinking Grenache. Gulp it down!

Splendid. Just opened after shipping. Bright red fruit. Understated as other tasters have noted. Look forward to next bottle in a few months

Like a carousel, something different in each sniff.
Nose: candied rhubarb, thyme, sage, Bing cherries, pink peppercorn. Mouth: herb de Provence, black pepper, tart red fruit, solid grip (without being raspy or gritty)
