Description: Deep ruby/purple with notes of chocolate, dark cherry, graphite with hits of earth and leather. Rich and concentrated on the palate with a lively and lingering finish. Under $15, this is an amazing wine for the price. Decanting not required.
Food Paring: Great with steak au poivre. The pepper in the steak brought out the spiciness of the Grenache.
