A bit of heat on the nose (14.8%abv), slightly hiding the red fruit shoe polish aromas. Medium body, tart cherries and raspberries, smoky vanilla and spice lingering tannic finish. A delicious wine, perhaps a bit disjointed. More time, or reflecting the +/- blend? A-.

decent grenache, one of many at a blind tasting and it got drained by those taking seconds. Not to fruity, mild tanins

Drank with a seafood risotto. Needed a better food paring. Wine was very good.
