Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2009 Hickinbotham Vineyard Grenache has aromas of raspberry tart, cinnamon stick and nutmeg with nuances of dried cranberries and mandarin peel. Full bodied with a generous amount of warm red berry and spice flavors, it has a good line of enlivening acid with a medium-firm level of velvety tannins and a long finish. Delicious now, it should cellar to 2021+. Importer: Wine Brokers Unlimited, Hayward, CA
