Lovely first outing with this. Very pure, almost delicate expression of Grenache. With wild herb and spice notes. Just a touch of sauvage. Still on young side and definitely needed a decant.

this has pretty scents, leather, dried meats and cherry pits show up on the nose, completely earthy, with mouthwatering mineral that follows through, dry and elegant, rustic, earthy, almost weightless in the mouth, dusty finish, interestingly delicious

Complex aromatics of charred meat, rosemary, blood plum, cherry, tar and violets. It is plush and juicy in the mouth with malleable tannins. Acidity feels relatively low but the wine is fresh and there's a salty mineral thing that boots in towards the finish. Deliciously gluggable.

Grenache that drinks like syrah. Smokey, leathery, with olive and animal qualities. A charmingly rustic wine that is somhow also elegant.

Fresh, juicy. Lots of raspberries and cherries with that natural wine agricultural touch. Lovely with a lot of depth.
