Winetasting with Paul Kalemkiarian & Ed Masciana
Wine: Grenache, 2016. Passive Aggressive
Appellation: Southern Oregon
The Rogue Valley in Southern Oregon is very warm, so Grenache is a natural here. This wine is nothing short of a revelation. Obviously, the fact that it's from Oregon is surprising. But then we come to find out that the wine was aged for 20 months in French oak barrels, 30% of which were new. Even the French don't do that! The result is staggering. There is so much going on in this wine, one wonders where to start. At first you are hit with the ripe currant and strawberries, and then the huge spice notes and a wave of vanilla, plum and rose petals. The finish is a total knockout, leaving you lingering for more.
