Wine Review
Gregory Graham 2006 Crimson Hill Vineyard Grenache
An attractive red indeed! The nose delivers a bouquet of fragrant berries, subtle herb and vanilla. The palate is dry; light bodied, well balanced, and is moderately tannic. Terrific flavors of raspberry, black pepper and licorice guarantee a wonderfully long finish. Drink now or hold for additional bottle aging.

The nose of this aromatic, Southwest red offers up a bouquet of cherry and tobacco notes. The palate is dry, slightly hot with moderate tannins in delivering a long, savory finish. The wine is still young and tight, with plenty of structure to provide for terrific bottle aging. Flavors of cassis, spice herbs and umami create a very attractive flavor profile. Decant for an hour before drinking or hold for additional bottle aging.
