Like drinking liquid roses and cherries. Sandalwood incense and forest floor as well. Pure pleasure.

Lovely soft red sweet fruit with a dusty nose and dried bay leaves.

2013 A Tribute to Grace Wine Company Grenache

This wine is perplexing and deceptive in a good way. It's a very pretty clear ruby color in the glass, but the longer it sits it builds in body and spice. Along with a earthy spicy finish comes the tannic astringency; superfine tannins. The only negative is that it lacks a complex nose, just a subdued earthiness and cut strawberries. This is not your extracted fruit bomb, but holy crap this is tasty. The apt description is a Vosne Romanee Grenache.
