Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish /brick rim.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Very dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red and black fruits with light wood, spices, barnyard, blood, dried meats, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, earth, herbs, peppercorn and licorice.
Nice finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This Single Vineyard Grenache from Walla Walla Valley is very stinky and austere on the nose.
Complex and very interesting, but not what I expected at all. Feels more like an old world wine.

I had a recent vintage a couple of years ago and it showed much better. Might just be this particular bottle, or it could be past its prime by now.
A good quality wine and still very drinkable.

Walla walla is starting to hit their stride right now.
