2021 Grenache

87% Grenache, 9% Mourvèdre, 4% Cinsault

Stylish aromas of rose petal, Kirsh, raspberry and honey seduce the nose of this Grenache. Notes of lavender, Szechuan peppercorn, chaparral and hints of cocoa powder are densely packed on the midpalate. The finish is seamless and elegant with elongated tannins that glide across the palate.
