Copain "Les Copains" James Berry Vyd. Paso Robles 2003

Red.

Cran-cherry and (clean) earth on the nose. Smells like Pinot.

Very suave and broad in the mouth, with very nice framing acidity. Again, this resembles Pinot. But the Grenache delivers tell-tale textural sweetness, and a distinct red raspberry note.

Very nice. Grenache and Mourvedre, I believe.

Day 4 - Cranberry jelly and earth aromas now. Even broader and more seamless in the mouth. Long, plush finish, slight acid intrusion.
