2022 GRENACHE
95% Grenache, 5% Syrah

2022 GRENACHE

Wine reviewer at Wine Enthusiast, Matt Kettman says, "Strawberry, cinnamon and spiced black cherry compote aromas draw the nose deeply into this bottling. The palate is rich, lush and lovely, layered in baked cherry, pie crust and spicecake flavors that gain tension on the bubblegum-like finish." 94 points

Wine Reviewer, Jeb Dunnuck says, "Based on 95% Grenache and 5% Syrah, the 2022 Grenache offers spiced redcurrants, sappy herbs, subtle pepper, and leather. Complex, nuanced, and spicy, it's round, supple, and seamless on the palate, with medium to full-bodied richness, ripe yet present tannins, and outstanding length. Aged 18 months in 25% new and 75% neutral French oak puncheons, this complex Grenache will give many top Châteauneuf-du-Pape a run for their money. Drink 2025-2035. " 94 points

Blend: 95% Grenache, 5% Syrah
Aging: 18 months in French oak puncheons (25% new, 75% neutral)

The 2022 Grenache showcases the finesse and structure of this expressive varietal, offering a balance of bright fruit, earthy depth, and refined tannins.

On the nose are vibrant aromas of blue and red fruits like cherry, cranberry, and ripe plum that are layered with dusty minerality and hints of leather. Delicate floral and herbal notes of dried lavender add complexity.

The palate is medium-bodied, while Lingonberry, red currant, and a touch of cinnamon unfold alongside lovely minerality. The tannins are persistent, lending an elegant texture that carries through the moderate-length finish.

A versatile wine that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted root vegetables, or herb-infused dishes.
