2023 Cirrus
Tasting Notes: Aromas of raspberry coulis, plum paste, cinnamon stick and Tahitian Vanilla lay the hedonistic groundwork for what’s come. Light and ethereal on the palate, this wine highlights the spectrum of Grenache’s beautiful red fruit: raspberry sorbet, blood orange, and pomegranate syrup. Sweet baking spices and floral notes highlight the finish where this wine’s elegance and harmony steal the show.
