Another lovely grenache from Scherrer. Still somewhat primary at the outset, but evolved nicely once decanted. Blackberry, tea, orange peel, super-ripe cherries.

Day one; Robust (for Grenache) and still a bit primary, drinks Pinot adjacent. In my experience, the wines from this vineyard are usually more alive by this point in their evolution.
Day two; YES this is rocking today. Blackberry, cherry, tea, pomegranate, hints of garigue.

This was definitely on the young side, with peppery spice and lively tannins present. There’s more complexity here but it’s in the background at the moment. I’d hold for 3 years before checking in again, if I had more in the cellar.
