Duarte Georgetown Vineyard Grenache Blend

Greg Ballington
9.2

One of our favorite Grenache slash Grenache Blends out of California. Especially because of how different it is to the usual wine made with this varietal. This blend is 88% Grenache and 12% Syrah. Deep ruby red core. Some Syrah characteristics on the nose, caramel, maple smoked bacon and bark as well as some perfume and floral notes from the Grenache. High tannins (8/10) and moderate body covered with a ton of dark fruits. Attack is so smooth leveled with a punch in the finish. Tannins carry through with long and lingering finish. Absolutely delicious and will definitely continue to purchase these wines from Grant! Drink till 2030. — 9 years ago

Thanks :) I wonder if the Coravin will crank going through wax or if I'll have to commit to the bottle!

Ok, the Truman's must be retarded. How did you get all the f'ing wax off the top of the bottle. After two bottle consumed, Jenn attacked the bottle with a pairing knife...and the bottle won.
