Ignored by Thanksgiving guests after an exploratory taste. High RS, cooked fruit without adequate acid, very imbalanced to the cherry cough syrup side. With 20 at the table, 2/3 bottle was left, got poured down the drain. (The Regnie, Cali Rhone magnum, and a nice St Joseph got finished.)

This has a little brownish tinge upon opening, but about an hour later it opened up. Very little acidity, some fruit and pepper. Time to drink this - don’t wait!

Tasted at the tasting room. Grenache from Dry Creek Valley in Sonoma. Medium garnet color and clear. Moderate aromas of red cherries and black olives. Off dry with a light body. Smooth acidity and low tannins. Fair balance. Moderate flavors of cherries, red raspberry and olives. Short finish. Good.

Sweet at first but an excellent aftertaste. Not overwhelming. Great for after dinner.
