Value Grenache from Campo de Borja, still evolving and tasting great !! Consumed over two days, displayed more fruit upon opening that sorted into a really delicious wine on day two. Perfect cork easily removed. Dark ruby color with excellent clarity. Aromas & flavors of strawberry & red cherry. Held up well. This Grenache will survive over a decade.

Very complimentary with Indian food Spices and mild fruit line up with moderate spice in food Nice back of throat coating flavors of cassis and balanced acid and tannins. Mellowed and unlikely upside ahead Drink up

Dark to medium purple with minimal garnet. Black cherry and blackberry with plum. Black cherry and cola with cocoa. Decanted for 2 hours might try 3 next time. Long balanced acid and fine tannins finish.

consistent with the previous bottle, though not quite as good - a bit flat by comparison. definitely drink sooner rather than later. still, pretty good for wine i didn't intend to hold this long.

Very good wine at this age. 8-10 years best time to drink. Softened with good fruit and we balanced tannins.
