Brilliant value wine bought from yesmywine.com at 102 yuan. Dark ruby color and strong full-bodied Syrah. Wild with much black berry fruit and blueberries. Pronounced new oak touch, probably American oak. Very ripe fruit with toasty flavors that comes after leather or meat and some spices and earth. Good intensity both on nose and palate despite the high alcohol may be sharp. High amount of tannin, firm and coating. This inexpensive syrah from campo de borja can be aged for another 3 years. The great value seems only comes from yesmywine. com. 93 points — 12 years ago

I gave this 15 or 20 minutes and then decided if I was going to drink wine tonight, then it wouldn't be this. 4 hours later and the nose is more Alto Moncayo than Alto Moncayo... Banana-Vanilla Creme Pie on steroids. Unfortunately it doesn't quite carry the weight of Alto on the palate, but at $12, is a comparison anything but unfair? This is shockingly good and a completely different wine than what I tasted 4 hours ago. — 8 years ago

The palate is drier in style than the Estate. It’s also more elegant. Lemonhead candy, sour notes, green melon, guava, soft, delicate, minerality, sea spray, saline, beautiful acidy with a long, well rounded, elegant finish.

Enjoyed with Nat in DC. Turned out to be a nice wine. Strong fruit and berries. Nice. — 7 years ago
I love this wine. this is the last of 6 bottles I bought from the winery. it has evolved dramatically. it started out as a little bit funky but medium bodied super complex wine. it is evolving into a jammy fruit bomb ala Alto Moncayo. I think I best like the wine a year or two ago where the fruit was emerging but still had the complex notes I loved in the young wine. Bravo Mcprice Myers. — 9 years ago
2013 Gramercy Olsen Vineyard Grenache
Wow, this is really great. A dead ringer for an Alto Moncayo. It is that same velvety and luscious style. A special release from Gramercy and worth seeking out. — 10 years ago
Fruity with a dry finish. Interesting. — 10 years ago
Great wine. Tasted it blind and it reminded me a lot of Alto Moncayo. Well balanced between straightforward and powerful fruit and hints of smokey oak. Delicious. — 10 years ago
Just a good Spanish Tempranillo. Bit of earth and spice. — 11 years ago
