The 2023 Grenache Besson Vineyard brims with power and sensuality. Own-rooted old vines confer such gravitas and intensity here. Forest floor, white pepper, Cara Cara orange and black pepper flesh out in the glass, framed by ultra-fine tannins and a whisper of ink on the finish. Fleshy and rounded, this is a decidedly richer wine in the context of the house style, but it's absolutely gorgeous.
