2 hour decant was helpful but can't wait to try this bottle in a few years. More complexity than the Aonair we opened already which makes this a perfect wine for a big meal. Kept getting better as we finished the bottle. — 9 years ago

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. — 10 years ago

This is the only white produced by Grant at Aonair. Made entirely from Mount Veeder fruit. This blend is made up of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 35% Sauvignon Muscat (need to double check) and 5% Semillon. Crystal clear medium yellow. Thick nose with some spices on the attack, almost caramel and golden apples. Slightly sweet aroma. Moderate plus acidity (7.5/10) with a crisp and refreshing medium body. No sharpness, very balanced and structured. Some ginger and citrus notes on the palate. Long and lingering finish with a little honeysuckle. Beautiful white blend and excellent work by Grant. Drink till 2022. — 9 years ago

Wow. I shouldn't be surprised that a wine made by Grant Long Jr is phenomenal, just like his Aonair Wines portfolio, but holy smokes this is so delicious. Beautiful royal purple color in the glass and it smells of boysenberry, licorice and blueberries. Lovely bit of vanilla, light oak and cassis on the tongue. For $55, not many out there can top this for the price. @Greg Ballington, you and I are in agreement about this wine...so good! — 9 years ago
