An easy drinking red wine that will appeal to many palettes in sub $20 price. Hints of Cranberry and strawberry on nose. Decent mouthfeel, balance. Pleasant low alcohol (13%) alcohol. Kinda like a comfort wine, easy, simple, enjoyable.

I'm not sure why I bought this wine. This wine seems to be breaking down already, regardless I wouldn't recommend it. It reminded me of something you might find at a low budget wedding.

This wine has improved. On release it had a bit of a rough edge to it. With a little bit of bottle time it's really mellowed up enough to give a better drinking experience. I feel this Grenache is a very good QPR.

Still love this wine. Decanted for a couple of hours, but this isn't particularly necessary for this wine. Very pretty nose, and smooth wine. It's like a simple Merlot in terms of drinkability, but there is so much more going on with this wine. Also, for the price (about $16) I think it's a real bargain.

It's been a few days since I drank this so I'm struggling a bit to remember the specifics, but I *do* remember that I like this wine, a lot. It's the kind of wine you can take to a party and pretty much everyone will like it. It's not a fruit bomb, but instead is a refined and smooth drink with a very pleasant nose and some interesting meaty components. Very enjoyable.
