April 22, 2023 - enjoyable. Huge wine, and a great follow to the chateaneuf from earlier in the night. Still lots of life so don't be in a rush to drink.

April 20, 2023 - hi alcohol, very full bodied for a Grenache, reasonably consistent with the house style

March 4, 2022 - PNP at 63degF. Black cherry dominated the nose with some thyme and leather sneaking in. Soft palate fleshy dried fruit with the finish being prominently astringent. The third sip gets an explosion of cigar box on the nose, which faded away quickly to dark dried fruits. The palate was then gorgeous with sweeter elements and significantly less astringency. The finish seems to never stop and the mouth waters for another sip.
Love how Russell's wines have evolved in the cellar from a Jersey Shore bodybuilder, just muscular and full of vibrato and in your face to a top female CrossFit athlete, still muscular but in proportion and much more elegant and focused.
