The wine was good, but kind of too smooth even for a Grenache. Lacked a bit of personality. Pretty sure the wine is on the decline. I wouldn’t wait any longer if I had another one in the cellar.

Velvety, round, with a nice degree of refinement. Not the big block of vanilla that we see too much in California. Definitely ready, I wouldn't wait too much to drink it.
