Lots of kirsch, herbes de Provence, and ground pepper notes emerge from Helene's 2021 Grenache El Diablo, a medium-bodied, beautifully balanced Grenache from a site in the Russian River Valley. It has fine tannins and loads of character. Drink bottles over the coming 5-7 years.

The 2021 El Diablo, 100% Grenache, is a rich, exotic wine. Succulent red fruit, blood orange, pomegranate, rose petal and spice are all dialed up in this decidedly heady, almost extravagant offering. All the elements are so well balanced. Russian River isn’t exactly known for Grenache, but this is undeniably impressive.
