This Grenache displays a deep ruby color and rich aromas of raspberries, mountain blueberries, black currants, crushed roses, sweet tobacco, lavender, anise and spiced incense. The flavors are simultaneously supple and bold, with lavish red and blue fruits that are intermixed with licorice, dark cocoa, French roast and Red Mountain scorched earth. On the back, the wine turns chewy textured with pressed berries, roasted nuts, framboise and cassis liqueurs and charcoal, followed by a slightly grainy lip smacking moderate tannin finish.
