DogRidge 2004 DV2 Grenache Oct 05

A small amount of VA that did not blow off; but it helped to deliver the lift to roast nuts, and coffee with a touch of underlying spice. The silky mouth feel is attractive and complements the wines inherent elegance. Medium-weight, there is nothing sweet about this wine at all, and the lively acid will complement food. The flavour profile is completely savoury with plum, coffee, heavily roasted nuts and milk chocolate; it’s an interesting wine that finishes with good persistence and will be even better with food. Rated as Recommended with *** for value.
