February 28, 2019 - An aromatically strong presence with strawberry dominant notes. In mouth all berries and a rather pure expression of Grenache. Lingering flavors which are more like forest floor and mushroom than berries. Strong tannic presence still and that tells me this could age further.

February 26, 2018 - A very restrained and elegant Grenache. Immediate berries which quickly morphed into mushroom and forest floor funkand then Cedar wood finish with lingering but faint plum notes.
Can't believe that the concrete can do this to Grenache. -

January 22, 2017 - Although we could taste the concrete, we liked the Grenache flavors as they were very crisp and clean not overpowered by oak.
