This Grenache is a delightful and well-balanced offering, showcasing a delicate nose with lavender, dark berries, plum, Swiss milk chocolate, and dried leaves.

The medium tannins, strong acidity, and lean texture further enhance its appeal, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a graceful and harmonious wine experience.
