Medium ruby-purple, it has addicting aromas of cinnamon stick, red and black berries, aniseed, dried flowers and loads of exotic spice nuances. The palate is full-bodied with explosive, ultra layered, spicy fruits supported by grainy tannins, and it finishes long with lip-smacking freshness and lots of flavor layers. How gorgeous! 541 cases produced.

The 2017 Sensibility is made of 100% Grenache and was aged 18 months in concrete and neutral puncheons.

Light to medium-bodied, it’s fresh and light on its feet with bright, floral-tinged fruits, a lightly grainy frame and lip-smacking freshness calling you back for another sip on the long finish. 498 cases produced.

The 2016 Sensibility from the Paderewski vineyard is made from 97% Grenache and 3% Mourvèdre, harvested September 15-21 and matured for 18 months. Winemaker Jordan Fiorentini says no whole cluster was used this year, and that the wine fermented and aged partially in concrete. "If the tannins are already very supple, I know I can use more concrete," she notes. "It helps keep the wine in that primary zone." The technique resulted in a vibrant expression, with lush red and blue fruits accented by blood orange, rose petals and tobacco. Medium-bodied, the palate is ripe and supple with a long, juicy finish. Its nuances haven't begun to blossom, and this deserves several more years in bottle. 489 cases were made.
