  Not evolving in the way I'd hoped and expected from prior vintages. A bit awkward. Entirely drinkable and good / enjoyable with food, but there was this odd sense of reduction, but it really can't be that. A little too gamy and wild? I've got another bottle and hopefully it'll show better. It turns out I was lucky to have grabbed this, though, as it was paired against a pretty humble (vegan) meal.

  Clearly Grenache, very distinctive and has all the varietal notes. Oh so smooth, with good weight and an attractive finish. Not the best wine of the night but oh so nice.

  Scores lower than 91 are unfair! This is a great grenache. Drank after a 4 hour decant and that is vital to enjoy this wine.
