$7 Grenache: Palate Pleaser. Jaw Dropper 01/10/2012
This wine overdelivers for what I paid. Its full mouthfeel and firm tannins give the impression that it is way more than just a cheap bottle of Vin de Pays from the south of France. There are wonderful berry aromas, hints of smoke and tar, and an overall drinkability that makes me want a case of this for everyday table wine. Found this on sale at the Georgetown Safeway for $7! Rediculous! I will start sampling some of the Cotes du Rhone category from this producer and see if it creates a similar wow factor. If the Mayan calendar is right, we'd better start popping corks...
