Saturday, September 4, 2010 - Cellar Raid: Grenache and Sangiovese (Extra Space, Singapore): Rather standard modern fare. Decent, but nothing to shout about. Nose had a nice warm feel to it, with plums and sweet, almost kirsch-like cherres wed to whiffs of cigarette smoke and rubber and lashings of American oak. More oak on the palate - coconut, vanilla and spice at the fore, along with very fruit forward sweet cherry and blackberry flavours and a little savoury undertone. A little heat on the finish, along with a final dose of woody spice. Decently balanced, okay drinking, but not one I would go out and buy.
