This is a very tasty Grenache blend from Russian River Valley. Showing nice complexity now, with a great nose.
This 8 year old is peaking now. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Elegant and extracted. Fruit forward and spicy.
Easy drinking, good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour of airtime.
I had it 3 years ago, and it is definitely better now. Tangy and interesting.
I gave it a light chill, and had it all by itself.
