Pop and pour. Lovely grenache stink on the nose - underbrush, animalistic sage and oregano and some light black raspberry fruit. Much more fruit driven on the palate. Lovely silky black fruit on the attack and some spicy vanilla on the finish, but all in a harmonious whole with wonderful structure. Really good. No sign of decline, but too good to hold for too much longer

Had this 2 nights ago… It had the Grenache nose… but lacked acidity and felt really flabby fruit /flat. Fruit dominated and no structure to support it. Maybe it was bottle variation, b/c i recall having this and it tasted quite good… It was just alright 2 nights ago.
