A decent inexpensive Grenache. Had so Grenache character and flavor. Not as weak as many others. Still not A team.

Somewhat unusual nose showing sweet baking spice perfume and a candied note. Carbonic maceration? Palate has a nice linear structure and graphite tannins. Pretty enjoyable but with some distracting notes. Still, great for the money.

It’s 2 days after opening. Had with ratatouille. Light bodied. Not alcohol forward. Low tannins

Really good Grenache. Not fruit bomb but really clean and tasty. $14.95 at LA Wine Co. Stevy likes a lot.

Very broad and fruity. Nice table wine. But for 14.95 at LAWC, I’ve had better. However, I would get again.
