If you like Oregon Pinot Noir and want to get a similar experience with a different grape and region, you must try this lovely well balanced wine.! It has a fruity noise; cranberry, light color cherry and raspberry. On the palate still getting cherry and darker berries. Finish is medium plus and has some peppery note shows after swallowed.

Fresh Rhubarb and bright red fruits. High toned and precise, laser like color and balance. A rarity to have so much pure varietal character and sense of place for a wine under $20.

The wine store described this is slurpy. We’ve been slurping it ever since. Rumored to be gone - worried it may be true.

Great earthy and rich red with almost no acid! So nice with pork.

Spice tinged red berry wine with notes of cured meats. Short finish but a bright Grenache nonetheless.

Very pleasant and tasty. Good balance between sour and sweet. Don’t recap much fragrance.

Never tasted a Garnche that taste like a very good Pinot noir (in a good way). Got this as one of my monthly wine club bottles and I absolutely likes it. Going back and purchasing some more. Thank you #winesteward in Pleasanton, Ca.
