Nice wine, in a lighter, simpler, sort of bubble-gum style (for lack of a better way of putting it). Didn't show quite as well as the last bottle, but still good and a decent value.

Medium ruby. Nose actually smells like grenache, and is nicely followed up on the palate. A very nice example of what California grenache can and should be. Clean, spicy, red fruit, nice juicy acidity. It comes across like a very good southern CdR. After trying this I went out and bought six more.

Consistent with previous bottles, but the bright red fruit quickly drops off on the palate, leaving drying tannins on the finish.

Very tasty in a sort of overtly fruity bubblegum way. Distinctly grenache, comes across like a nice, simple CdR. Good value.
