LOS PADRES Grenache 2012

This wine, like the other Los Padres lineup, also utilizes Central Coast fruit. This has pretty aromas of rose petals, smoked meats and red cherry. It is hard to imagine this level of aromatics in this price point. There are flavors of raspberry, lavender, sagebrush and red cherry. This has a wonderful minerality and is expressive and lithe. This winemaking is just fantastic, kudos to Tensley! (Best 2015-2025) - December, 2015 (OB)
