Kalleske, Old Vine Grenache Size:6x750ml and the fruit was picked

and the fruit was picked at a mere 19 brix from the rockiest section of the vineyard

serious and powerful yet the dense tannins are relatively refined

The 1986 Cos d’Estournel replicates the performance from my 30-year on tasting that I conducted a few months back

This is a stunning wine that will benefit from another few years in bottle

but you really need to coax the 2010s out

Kalleske, Old Vine Grenache Size:6x750ml and the fruit was pickedFrom vines planted in 1935, the 2004 Grenache Old Vine (100% Grenache aged in neutral French and American oak for two years) reveals a big, sweet nose of black raspberries, sweet cherries, pepper, spice, and resiny notes. Rich, heady, and full bodied with moderate alcohol for the vintage (15. 5%), this long, evolved Grenache is best drunk over the next 4 5 years.
