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,

A nose full of smoldering herbs, hay, earth, pencil eraser, oysters, strawberry liquor, chamomile, with a hint of mint and forest floor sets this apart. Round then quickly turning a touch more aggressive with tannins that just grab the mouth and are a hint drying yet offer great contrast to the rich, dark, roasted strawberry fruit in the mouth. There is a bit of vegetal character here that carries over from the nose repeating the chamomile and slight mint notes with a bit of gamy savoryness floating low in the fruit. Very fresh and honest feel to the wine. The finish shows a touch of wood up front and read more...

I had this wine at a restaurant and it was delicious! Velvety tannins, very smooth. Just the right amount of dryness with a good balance of fruit notes.
Went well with both meat and fish.

Cannonau, otherwise known as Grenache, thrives in Sardegna, where it produces wine of rustic elegance. This example is redolent of berries and figs and has lots of velvet-y tannins. Though the wine speaks if its southerly place of origin, it has good balance and has a moderate alcohol content. Food is a must.

Rating: 92/100 - As reviewed by Wine & Spirits Magazine on 06/09 Here's an earthy, strawberry-accented red that would feel at home in the Southern Rhône. Grown on calcareous soils, this balances tense, gripping tannins with fresh raspberry and strawberry flavors. Juicy, full and completely delicious, for slow-roasted pork.
