  Ripe but faded nose. Raspberry vanilla in the full bodied mouth with still a good amount of (supplemented?) acidity left in the finish which includes a nice touch of bitter licorice to offset some of the sweetness. Nothing special, but still drinking well when paired with rich fatty cheeses.

  i was not sure if this would be OK. It was in the cellar for about 7 years. I was pleasantly surprised that it was very good. I remembered from the last bottle that it needed about 2 hours of decanting.
  
  They next day the wine was much better, much more complex and integrated.
  
  If you have any of this in your cellar, I would open it several hours before you want to enjoy it.

  Brickish, slightly dull colour. Berry aromas dominate on the nose. Slightly flabby but reasonably balanced with nice tannins.

  Personally I find that grenache can be bitter and unpleasant without a lot of years under its belt, so I found this wine absolutely smack bang in the middle of its drinking window. Chocolate-mocha characteristics and perfectly integrated, but I recommend against decanting. Very good upon opening, but at its best (for my taste) by day 3.
