The wine is delicious but takes a minute to open up. Once it does, it’s brimming with red fruits and spice. Serve it with the juiciest, flashiest steak, hamburger or sausage on your grill.
Our 2019 Alisos Grenache is smooth and elegant with dense flavors of ripe plum, fresh dark cherry and licorice. Herbal and earthy notes make for the overall impression of a well-balanced wine.
The 2019 Pape Star Blonde is straight-up impressive and reminds me of a great Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc. A blend of 80% Grenache Blanc and 20% Roussanne, it has ripe quince and pineapple fruits, some honeyed herb and toasty notes, medium body, and a layered, textured, yet light-on-its-feet style on the palate that's going to shine on the dinner table. 94 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
The MV Special K Blend Take 3, a blend of 48% Grenache, 18% Mourvèdre, 17% Syrah, 8% Zinfandel, 5% Cinsault and 4% Counoise, is bright, flavorful and easy to drink. Pale ruby-purple, it has alluring, iron-streaked scents of blood orange, pomegranate and autumnal accents. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy, with bursts of intense fruity flavor on the long finish. Drink this multi-vintage wine over the next 2-3 years.
