Professional Reviews & Tasting Notes

Leading off the 2013s from bottle, the 2013 Grenache la Paciencia Vineyard is getting up there with some of the top Grenache releases to come out of the New World. Incredibly perfumed, with notes of herbes de Provence, flowers, dried strawberries and assorted red fruits, it’s medium to full-bodied, seamless and impeccably balanced. The buzz words here are perfume, complexity and elegance. It’s also worth noting that the Grenache vines for this wine come from the famed Rayas lieu-dit in Chateauneuf du Pape. Drink 2016-2028.

The aromas pop with notes of fresh flowers, smoked meat, stems, mineral, smoke, white pepper and an earthy funk. The flavors dance on the palate, with mouthwatering fruit and savory notes that lead to an outrageously long finish. It’s equal parts elegance and intensity.

Moderately saturated medium red. Musky raspberry and strawberry fruit aromas are complicated by smoke, flint, olive tapenade and a note of garrigue on the perfumed nose. Delivers an intriguing sweet/savory character to its flavors of red berries, cherries in cream, flinty minerals and smoke. Suppler than past vintages of this wine but still quite precise in the middle palate. The resounding finish is firmly tannic and long, leaving an impression of weightlessness that’s rare for Grenache in the New World. This fruit is actually harvested later than Cayuse’s Armada Grenache but it shows no lack of lift.
