Not decanted, consumed over 1 hour. Cranberry/cherry fruit, a little herbal or spicy and with a dark, slightly bitter note which reminded me of charcoal or black licorice (although it didn't detract much). This had a pronounced tart character at first, but after an hour in the glass, it had calmed down and was surprisingly nice, especially considering the $13 retail price.

Jersey Girls Road Trip - A Story by the Chauffeur; 4/27/2012-5/2/2012 (Solvang, CA): Very nice grenache, this was served as a tasting but we ended up purchasing a bottle and enjoying the evening together.
Cherry fruit with a tart bite and licorice midpalate. Very good.
