Saturday, July 13, 2019 - Guessed Pax Grenache
Wow, when this hit the glass I said "Beaujolais - got a be Gamay." because of the translucent garnet color and clarity. The palate screamed Grenache to me - the candied cherry with cinnamon. The issue for me was the mid-palate faded. Steve said "it's missing completely". I heard this received strong scores. Good for them but if I put points tasting blind it, maybe 90... After the reveal it was more surprising because I've heard the house style tends to be big walla walla style. This is not that, not by a long shot.
