September 4, 2011 - Low acidity and ripe but moderate tannins have put this Grenache just over its peak. Generous fruit, however. Drink up.

March 2, 2011 - Bitter and very little pleasant flavors; maybe just way past it time.

October 25, 2008 - Bitter and acidic. Could not even drink. Had to throw away. Bottle was not corked, just not good.

April 28, 2008 - All kinds of berries / cherries on the nose...mostly blueberries & blackberries, some cherries. Good fruit comes through to break up the acidity that is slightly overpowering. I like it...probably would have enjoyed it more with food, but still noticed the great fruit & acid going on (no tannin though).
