WWC - CH (Fort Worth Club): Tasted blind - deep purple in the glass; not a big nose, but fresh red berries; integrated, but noticeable tannins; slight hint of tea; nice fruit on the palate, some blue fruit. I guessed a northern Rhone here. This bottle was in a nice spot.

This wine went prefect with our lobster thermidor. Compared it alongside a Caymus Mer Soliel Chardonnay and it paired much better with the sauce. The wine is fresh, lots of fruit, soft tannins, medium-bodied.

Nose and flavor profile are strongly dominated by the Grenache component. Rich middle that is even and extremely well integrated. Nice finish that persists with a rich mouth feel and warmth. This conclusion is a bit different than what I wrote nearly a year previous. It seems that I was not paying attention, then, or the wine has come out of a closed period in the intervening time.

Tasty, but, surprisingly, still young. Could have used a couple of more years.
