Kalleske, Old Vine Grenache Size:6x750ml The 1986 Cos d’Estournel replicates

The 1986 Cos d’Estournel replicates the performance from my 30-year on tasting that I conducted a few months back

and the fruit was picked at a mere 19 brix from the rockiest section of the vineyard

but for fans of the style

Chewy texture

but you really need to coax the 2010s out

Kalleske, Old Vine Grenache Size:6x750ml The 1986 Cos d’Estournel replicatesFrom vines planted in 1935, the 2004 Grenache Old Vine (100% Grenache aged in neutral French and American oak for two years) reveals a big, sweet nose of black raspberries, sweet cherries, pepper, spice, and resiny notes. Rich, heady, and full bodied with moderate alcohol for the vintage (15. 5%), this long, evolved Grenache is best drunk over the next 4 5 years.
