2022 Sine Qua Non Distenta IV Grenache Rated 98

"Moving to the reds from barrels, the 2022 Grenache Distenta IV is another ripe, opulent, sexy wine in the vintage that's going to check in near the top of the scale. Black raspberries, ground pepper, herbes de Provence, and sandalwood are just some of its nuances, and it's full-bodied, rich, concentrated, and velvety textured on the palate. It's a stunner of a wine based on 78% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 7.3% Mourvedre, and the rest Petite Sirah and white varieties." 98 Jeb Dunnuck
