Oh Hi You! (accompanied by a bashful wave). That’s the kind of blushing this Langhorne Creek Grenache will impress upon you; with its exotic hibiscus and Rosella florals, red licorice and wild raspberry. Sicilian olives, picked rosemary and thyme with ground cumin and mace. The palate is more than succulent; it’s an explosion of red and black fireworks that taste like summer berry pudding in your mouth! Tannins are fine but sturdy and the palate is streamlined and elegant. This is significantly under priced and a wonder of a wine. Drink alone or with guests, with your dog for company. Either way its going to be an event.
