Quite nice with a lovely jammy appeal. Smooth rich and fruit forward with dense berry and juniper spices. In a very good place if slightly still on the young side. Hedonisitc, but not over the top. Crowd favorite.

Grenache never seems to come together completely - either it is thin or the finish is lacking. But this bottle had the nose, the mouth and the finish! One of the best grenaches I have ever had - better than the SQN and Booker I have tried.

Was more "refined and polished" (to use the words of some reviewers) than I was expecting for a grenache, but not in a bad way. Just an interesting version well worth a try. Might be still young so I would give it some time if you only have one bottle.

Very ripe and hot; a bit disjointed. Saved the majority of the bottle and will update notes if this improves with air.
