Frane’s stellar example of Grenache offers up ripe cherries, strawberries, while a violet, cedar character dominates the nose. Gobs of pureed red fruit flavors layered delicately in mixed spice notes mingle smoothly on this full-bodied personality. An aftertaste of your favorite fruit smoothie lingers on the finish. Pair with Moroccan Skirt Steak, Hungarian Goulash, Indian curries, and macaroni and cheese. Aging: 5-9 years
