...the 2017 Grenache Larner Vineyard checks in as a blend of 88% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and 2% Viognier sourced all from the Larner Vineyard in Ballard Canyon, and aged 18 months in neutral puncheons. Vivid blackberry fruits, notes of ground pepper, violets, and ground herbs, medium to full body, and remarkable purity of fruit all make for an incredibly compelling Grenache blend. However, it's firm, focused, and concentrated on the palate, so give it a year or two. | 93 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
