The 2020 Grenache En Passerillage, made with 50% whole clusters, is a refreshing, easy-to-drink style. It has a pale ruby-purple color and layered, spicy aromas of blueberries, strawberries and raspberries with hints of autumn leaves, orange peel, aniseed, lilac and lavender. Despite its slender frame of dusty tannins and juicy acidity, it offers notably concentrated flavors, lots of spicy accents and a long, floral finish. Yum!

Crisp aromas of strawberry, pomegranate, rose petals and sumac are sharp and focused on the nose of this bottling from Randall Grahm, who slightly dried these grapes post-harvest. Sour cherry and alpine strawberry flavors rise on the sip, with fresh flowers and a light hint of dried meat also showing.
Vinous

Limpid ruby. Assertive red berry and cherry aromas are complemented by exotic spice, incense and smoked meat flourishes. Concentrated and fleshy on the palate, offering alluringly sweet raspberry, kirsch, cinnamon and star anise flavors and suggestions of bitter chocolate and candied flowers. Becomes more energetic with air and finishes very long and gently chewy, with firm tension and subtle tannic grip. 50% whole clusters; raised in a combination of used puncheons and stainless steel tank.
Wine Spectator

A handsome red that's more about nuance than power. Shows refined raspberry, garrigue and smoky pepper notes that glide on the long, savory finish. Drink now through 2030. 600 cases made.
