30 second sip: Sans Liege Grenache 2006
Aug.11,2009
The famous blending grape steps up:
Sans Liege Grenache 2006
USA > California > Central Coast
Was priced at $26.99. Perfume and blueberry muffin. Comes on with a dash of sweetness on the flat of the tongue. Ends with mocha spice.
Pairing: Would do well with a good decanting and a pairing of herb roasted lamb with saffron risotto.
