Funk and confection, slightly herbal/savoury. Grippy/structured tannins- atypically so for McV Grenache. Now to 1 or 2 years, better than you might think.

Not nearly as good as one of the other 02 Custodian Grenaches that I've had. This wine was really tight. Kept it open for about a day and came back to it and its lost most of what it had.

Fell over over about 15-20mins in the glass. When first poured though it was an interesting wine. Complex but at the end of it's life

Least expressive of the three different soil bottlings, although certainly not a bad wine.
