2021 Gramercy Cellars The Third Man Grenache Columbia Valley

Tasting Notes: The wine features a fruit profile of fresh red berries, including strawberry, raspberry, and Bing cherry, along with notes of black and white peppercorns, smoked pork, Asian spices, and a touch of orange zest. Its layered and complex aromas evolve quickly with exposure to air. While Grenache takes the lead, Mourvèdre and Syrah contribute significantly to the overall profile. On the palate, it is full-bodied and smooth, with well-integrated acidity and plush tannins. Despite its richness, the wine maintains its vibrant red fruit core and a refreshing character.
