A really good GSM with some cinsaut. Washington is making some great Rhone style wines. This is an exemplary version. Delicious and very easy to drink. Well balanced between the fruitiness and dryness. Good with food and solo.

Musky cherry and cedar aromas. Pronounced dark cherry fruit with hints of cranberry, dried herbs and baking spices. Also a little Smokey. Fruit all the way to the long finish.

This ended up in the beer ice chest at a friend's BBQ, but the slight chill on it worked well with the heat of the evening, and the Grenache drank well. Red berry with touches of leather and tobacco. Drink now.

Meaty funky nose. Really well balanced. Soft and delicious off the pop. Glad I waited a bit on this one. Always sells out before it's ready in my area. Only complaint is slight bitter/green note on the finish. I'll still gladly have another glass

Smokey and black fruited on the nose, but now more lifted than I remember - maybe that is the cinsault? Pretty young right now, the oak needs time to integrate.

Another great Grenache blend from Columbia. Black fruits, smoked, very well balanced.
