Tasting - Domaine de Grange de Payan

Name: Domaine de Grange de Payan
Variety: Grenache
Region: Rhone
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95

Winery Review: Intensely spicy and precise, with lively red berry flavors and a hint of black pepper. The Grenache is deeper and more powerful, offering cherry and black raspberry qualities lifted by zesty minerality.

My review:
If I thought the previous wine was spicy, I was definitely wrong. I smelled the black pepper more than anything else, and it was particularly dominant towards the end of my first sip, extinguishing the rest of the fruit.
