A bit on the light side for a Grenache. For the money, one can do much better by buying a Spanish or Aussie equivalent. Fruit driven, one dimensional, somewhat tepid. Nothing interesting going on here.

Big and brooding. Paired well with a ribeye but was a bit much without. Repour wine capsule and at 24 hours it had softened and at 48 it was a nice mix of berries and some cherry , but a deep flavor still holding forth. Drink or hold. Long devant recommended

Did a side by side with the 2013 and 2014 Snipes Mountain Grenache along with an Old World CdP.
PnP and noticed the brighter color and aroma straight away. Aroma of raspberry and red fruits with a smokey tail. Well balanced with a nice Grenache profile of raspberry and light meaty flavors.
Drinking very well at the moment and this wine would do well paired with braised short ribs!

Decent, but nothing special at all.

Very pure expression of Grenache.
