What to Expect

Grenache is the main grape in many Rhone blends and most Cotes du Rhone and Chateaunuef-du-pape. It's a grape that yields soft, lightly colored yet full wines endowed with deep notes of strawberry and raspberry. While not prone to producing particularly rich or complex wines in France, Grenache is one of the world's most widely-planted grapes, producing unique expression where ever it is planted. It is particularly common in Spain as Garnacha, and Sardinia, as Canonnau,

On the his has a bit of earth and spice, almost a hint of barnyard, or more like a well used kitchen actually. That subtle savory element comes through on the palate as well but it's well concealed in a deep pool of blackberry fruits with a touch of apple skin acidity and a hint of slightly rouch tannins. The finish adds some bitter cocoa notes and the fruit turn a little brighter recalling freshly made black raspberry preserves. A lovely wine with length, depth and complexity. 90pts
