2021 Chiron Grenache Unfamiliar Truth
3/23/2024 - bretrooks wrote:
Not decanted, consumed over ~1 1/2 hours. Vivid translucent red and obviously lighter-bodied. Youthful aromas of cranberry and wild strawberry jump from the glass, picking up notes of peppercorn and baking spice over time along with a firmer sense of structure than there seemed to be at first. While the strong impression of cranberry was unusual to me in a Grenache, we both enjoyed this. I'll probably give the other bottles at least another year.

Seemed decently made overall, but marred by some Band-aidy brett...dumped.
