December 21, 2023 - Wow, the nose on this wine! This is why I love Grenache! Loads of strawberries, flowers, and sweet candy. Good acid and the tannins are still quite young. It can use more time for everything to come together but no harm in trying one now.

October 5, 2023 - Interesting nose with strawberries, some VA, and red plums. The palate is quite structured with good acidity, more strawberry flavors, darker fruit notes, violets, and blood orange. Nice finish. A lovely wine but I feel that since release it has lost some of the immediate fruit yet hasn't gained much in complexity. It may be in a dumb phase right now, I'd wait quite a bit longer before starting to drink these.

December 18, 2022 - Pedres Blanques Wine Dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Shoji (DUPREE, Kyoto): Produced in a generous volume compared to other vintages so far. PNP into narrow bowl glass (“Root” day): Medium purplish ruby to the eyes.
Aromatic nose of mints, complex florals and a balance of red and black cherry fruits. Signature “sweet” florals that distinguished the Grenache variety for me too.
Really a complete wine on the palate with fruit and secondary flavors largely consistent with the nose here. Lots of stuffing and complexity achieved without adding much if any weight here. Satisfying persistent finish.
94-95 points to me.
