2015 Yangarra Estate Grenache High Sands

The 2015 Grenache High Sands is meaty and savory, with a core of freshness on the palate. This is more in line with some other Grenaches I have seen outside of Yangarra this week—i.e., perhaps is less "Yangarra-like" in its styling. But all elements of it are impressive, especially the length of flavor. It's a sleeper, perhaps. This came from low yields and has a low pH, and the wine looks quite like Nebbiolo in that it is structural and intense, but it is super fine. There are notes of asphalt, petrichor and rose petals. There's an effortlessness here that I find most beguiling. It's silky. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
