Note di degustazione
A total showstopper, the 2021 God Only Knows entices with a gorgeous blend of wild herbs, lavender, rose petals, cedar dust and dried strawberries. This is a total pleasure on the palate, silken and round with juicy acidity and crisp wild berry fruits complemented by violet inner florals. Hints of orange peel mix with tart blackberry over a bed of fine tannins as this finishes dramatically long and with a resonance of hard red candies that lingers on—wow. It's amazing that this is from a warmer vintage because the 2021 comes across as remarkably fresh and nearly cool-climate in feel. This is a Pinot lover's Grenache.

Rocking raspberries, strawberries, rose petals, ground pepper, sappy garrigue, and a hint of iron all emerge from the 2021 Grenache God Only Knows, another pretty, medium-bodied, elegant, finesse-driven Grenache from this team that's just about overflowing with character. With ripe, polished tannins, beautiful balance, and a great finish, it has the class to evolve gracefully for 10-12 years.
Wafting from the glass with a seductive allure, the 2021 Grenache God Only Knows Armada Vineyard delivers an enticing bouquet of black raspberries, cranberry and dusty cherries. This wine offers delicate expressions of earth-driven and floral Grenache complemented by soft herbal and savory spices that elevate its aromatic profile. Medium-bodied and fresh, revealing greater complexity on the palate than the nose initially suggests, the wine showcases a balanced structure with lively acidity and velvety tannins that glide gracefully to a round, fresh finish. Nicely done! The wine rested for 21 months in all neutral French demi-muids and foudre. Just under 6,500 bottles were produced.
Gorgeous, funky, effusive aromas lead to meaty, roasted black fruit, wood smoke and black pepper. Fermented with stems included, this wine is alive with woodsy, savory elements that complement the deep blackberry and dried black cherry fruit. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.
