  My sense was that this wine has passed its peak - I held it too long. It still has the typical grenache bright red fruit, but it no longer has the zest that it did when it was younger. If you've got them, I would suggest you drink them up!

  An exquisite expression. Dark fruit, but bright, with a hint of dust and a gripping acidity on the back end. Thrilling on it’s own, but even better with a meal. Okay enough puffery. Like all Denner, it’s just damned good.

  Great showing. Big red fruit, but nothing over the top; excellent balance at this point. The alcohol is just showing through now that the fruit is integrating. Easy to love.

  Bit of alcohol on the nose with nice light fruit spice...raspberry tongue with chocolate and spice and some nice acidity but that alcohol bite remains persistent,
  Could score higher if the alcohol wasn't predominant...
