What a nose - smoked meat and burning campfire
Such an intensely light colored wine, you would have no idea what’s in store - packed full with flavor from beginning to end - a wave of Pinot like acidity hits first, then opens with brighter alpine fruit, some tangelo and kiwi skin. Expressive finish as well with a lingering, longing fruit leather like ride.
This producer has been very delightful so far.

Feb 9th, 2021Much more fruit forward than a standard grenache. CO2 treated early on in the process to maintain fruit structure. Incredible wine for the price.

Apr 4th, 2020Delicious bang for the buck. Juicy red fruit, light tannins, delicate body and acidity. Very fragrant and light bodied with an aromatic and supple finish.
