Edward Sellers, Paso Robles, Grenache 2005

Deep red.

Deep, rasp/cherry nose, low-key, but loaded. Earth/spice in the background.

Really plush and packed in the mouth, but no easy, superficial, "sweetness". Shows some heat and some back end acidity that throws it off track.

Vinturi = Beef broth/nut liqueur/sauce aromas. Heat and acidity more integrated, but remain.

Day 3 - Similar to day 1, less fruit, more earth. Now texturally sweet in the mouth, but still shows alcohol/acid spike in the finish.

$35 15.9% alcohol
