Monday, March 25, 2013 - Good wine but not exceptional. It sort of reminds me of a Pinot on steroids. It has red fruits notes reminiscent of Pinot Noir but with a heavier mouthfeel. Each sip starts with a taste like Pinot but then you get this black licorice mid-palate with a medium-to-full body. It isn't hot but between the body and finish you can kind of sense the alcohol levels are elevated but then again you should expect that with grenache. It has plenty of life in it but I don't see any reason to wait to drink it.
