Pale to medium garnet-purple colored, the 2014 The Derelict Vineyard Grenache is scented of cherry preserves, raspberry pie and dried mulberries with touches of incense, Chinese five spice and cracked black pepper. Soft, plush and with a racy acid line defining the palate, it has a good amount of baked red berry flavors and an exotic spice-laced finish.

Elements of tar and leather add bass notes to the burly mouthful of dark fruit, spice and earth flavors, with rustic tannins and a crisp herb accent on the finish. Drink now through 2030. 88 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add
