12/25/2023 - trequer Likes this wine: 91 pointsA juicy, round and pure grenache with some round and soft tannins. Full-bodied and round with smoke, meaty character and lots of ripe fruit. Opulent is the word. I was going to make beef and Fettuccini Alfredo, so I decanted the wine but I decided not to make the beef. I was concerned about the pairing, but it worked well. |
