Some bottle variation - this is showing no real hint of brown - and nose is all there - truffles and cherries. Lovely balanced fruit and tannins beautifully rounded into the whole. I really wish I had opened a CDP to compare

This was outstanding. Not what I was anticipating from Australia, but wow, what a surprise. I picked this up for around $25 on a recommendation and am scrambling to find more. While not an expert on Grenache, I do know that I love the fragrance and the taste leaves me yearning for more. Nice wine!

Lots of spice on nose, starting to have brown tinge on edge of glass. Still outstanding example of what grenache can be - spice without the tar
Seems to be just past its peak, on my memory, so drink up. I'll drink my last one before year end

Lovely grenache experience, long (40 seconds) and smooth on the palate.
Classic pale grenache color, welcoming nose and sooo easy to drink. Triple the price to get an equivalent CDP
