WineDiva's Review

Seductive, potent, supple.
I've never hid my affection for Grenache, in all it manifestations and this wine is one of the reasons. This stunning Garnacha is grown at elevations between 600-700 meters on poor stony clay and limestone soils. The vines age between 35-60 years old.
Exceedingly pretty it is a delight of raspberry, blueberry and cherry with lilacs, licorice, exotic spice and vanilla. It is supple with generous sun-warmed fruit and baking spice lounging on a potently weighted palate. Seductive. A consummate expression of this variety.
