From 100% old vine Grenache, the wine is ripe, sweet, fresh, earthy and spicy. With its soft textured blend of kirsch, raspberry and kirsch, the fruit stands out on the nose and medium-bodied, soft palate.

2015 Southern Rhône Flight (K&L Wines, San Francisco): Surprisingly pale color. High toned green notes and strong cracked pepper. Nice lighter weight. Bright red fruit and that pepper again. Not that tannic, but harsh, alcoholic finish. Too bad after the promising start in the mouth.

In a transition phase now, need to wait a couple of years before the next one.

Printemps du Châteauneuf-du-Pape tasting. (La salle des fêtes in Châteauneuf-du-Pape): This is a 100% Grenache. Beautiful ripe cherries and raspberries. Very juicy and clean. Good length. Very beautiful wine in this stage.
