Turn up the spice and enjoy incredibly diverse flavors as the 2019 York Mountain Grenache takes the grape to the next level with notes of fresh black and white pepper, vibrant raspberry, bing cherry, dark soil, coastal chaparral, rosemary, black licorice, rose and orange oils, and roasted coffee. Spice, herbs, and earth notes encircle the outer rings of the palate as elegant, ripe red fruits concentrate on the mid palate and flow into chewy, long-grain tannins at its finish. This wine is a rare example of how serious, graceful, and mouth-filling a Grenache can be. – Jordan Fiorentini
