🙈 tasting 3rd wine
at wset level 2 course (5th meeting)

1st of a grenache couple.
had quite a few grenache blends but I'm a true novice, so no guesses yet.

red cherry, red plum, herbs, liquorice and some oak spices 👃

medium acidity.
low tannins.
medium body.

mostly raspberry, 🍒 and liquorice 👄

made well but no serious complexity.

2016. Dark and lovely, full of fruits, well balanced and structured. Can’t get enough of this one really.

Balanced with great ripeness and light tannins with a lingering finish. Tasting notes of raspberry and cherry with hints of chocolate, mineral and licorice.

Drinking really nicely. Not over-oaked and we’ll balanced fruit profile.
