Description
"If there is an exemplar of the silky polished sheen some great Grenache can shine at you, it’s here. When it wanes, leaving the slimmer image of the wine about six years off, there’s a real rakish tango duo squirming and jerking around in there. Then rises the alcohol: after a few days the exhalation is sultry and spiritous, like a fine orujo or grappa seasoned with a cigarillo and a ristretto or two. This astonishing wine will go well into its second decade. After all that adventure, the lozenge, the jujube of rich cherry and raspberry just sits there cheekily in the centre of the tongue, melting happily to tannin and natural fruit glycerol. Nyah nyah." - Philip White
