2004 Tir Na N'og Old Vines Grenache (McLaren Vale)

This Australian red was recommended to us by the folks at Village Wine Market when we were there for a tasting. It's a nicely balanced wine with medium fruit - very tasty. We opened it last night after consuming the French Pinot Noir in the previous post.

The tasting notes from the website: "The 2004 harvest of these old vines yielded some of the most intensely flavored Grenache you are ever likely to taste. Beautiful fruit and spice notes waft from the glass, and on the palate the wine is lush and intense yet exhibits great balance and extraordinary mouthfeel. This is sexy wine that is sure to provide drinking pleasure for years to come."

Definitely worth a try! About $25.
