Product Description: The start of the 2020 vintage was drier than average with rainfall 20% below average, a benefit being low disease risk. In late November, we had a very hot day followed by strong gusty winds, which reduced the crop by up to 50%. The vines then endured a hot December, but relief came in January, with a period of a 12 days straight of a perfect 30 degrees. Welcome rain came in early February, which helped to freshen the leaves prior to harvest. The result has been wines of intense & fresh fruit flavors and bright color, but only half the volume of a normal year.

Tasting Notes
Bright red in color. This wine has aromatics of fresh raspberry and red fruits with a sprinkling of Mediterranean herbs. Old vine elegance from vines planted in 1928. Bright red fruits of raspberry and redcurrant, layers of spice, wrapped up in silky tannins. Savory oak spice from aging in only 4+ year-old French oak, with a long and mellow finish.
Best Paired With
Maxwell Four Roads Grenache is best enjoyed with venison, macadamia, and cherry.
