Deep ruby purple color with ripe raspberries, spice and blueberries on the nose. This classic southern Rhone style blend offers great balance and layers of flavor. On the palate, the berries and spice combine into a delicious melange of flavors with hints of plum and black pepper that last well into the finish. Delicious now on its own, it is also a great foil for barbecued meats and fowl, hard cheeses and hearty vegetarian fare. It can reward patience by continuing to develop over the next few years if you can stop yourself before then.

Our first Grenache is light ruby with brick overtones in color and has strawberries, rhubarb and hints of leather in the nose. Ripe forward fruit with mulberry, cardamom, tea leaves and bits of leather on the first sip, it's medium body is belied by the depth and melange of flavors that make it seem richer than it is. The flavors meld into a long finish with strawberry and Dutch cocoa lingering on the palate balanced by soft tannins and grapey acids. Grenache is a fun, delicious and very versatile varietal as shown by this wine. It's wonderful on it's own, it pairs very well with hard cheeses, earthy stews, grilled foods including salmon and tuna, fowl, red meats, vegetables and tofu and it's a great foil for lighter red sauce on pasta. Enjoy it while it lasts.
