Donkey & Goat 2013 Grenache (El Dorado)

Country: US / California
Variety: Grenache
Winery: Donkey & Goat /

This nervy and vibrant wine takes time to reveal the intriguing flavors within. Quite tart and tannic at first, it is firm in texture to balance the ripe, sweet plum, marascino cherry and orange peel aromas. While chewy and lip-smacking in the beginning, deeper flavors come through on the second and third sips, and a smoky nuance develops on the finish.
