Strawberry and cherry jam nose, all about those ripe fruity aromas. The fruit on the palate is similar but fresher with traces of oak spice. Fair acidity and decently grippy tannins lend style and structure to this full bodied Grenache. One-fifth of the wine saw 10 months of French oak, instilling the pleasant spice that accents the long and fruity finish. Good value for a quality old vines red.
