La Paciencia Vineyard Grenache

Rich, sweet, concentrated black raspberry and savory herbs. Opening up well and showing a distinctive style separate from the more funky, tapenaude style Cayuse. Still young and fun and clearly on the rise. A compact muscular frame like @Shawn R who brought this and his A game.

Typical Cayuse funk but nice clean Grenache behind it.

Blind. Whole table guessed Cayuse. No surprise but close. This was really funky and yummy. Fun to drink. Better with food than as a sipper. I really liked it. Probably couldn't drink it all the time but a nice change of pace. Very intellectual flavor profile.

2009 Grenache. I'm a big fan of these wines. Nose of stewed strawberries. Cinnamon, olive tapenade, white pepper and some braised meats. Minty finish. Looking forward to tasting the Tempranillo from this label.
