The 2017 Horsepower Grenache, Sur Echalas Vineyard is another absolutely sensational release in this vintage from Christophe Baron. Displaying remarkable elegance and finesse, this fabulous Grenache opens to gorgeous complex aromas of black raspberries, wild red berries and cherries, which are woven together with lavender, orange rind, white pepper, dried spices, smoke and a wonderful mineral character that ties it all together. On the palate this is medium-bodied and impeccably balanced with outstanding overall focus and concentration. This continues to impress as it offers an incredible soft, seamless texture, that glides effortlessly into the ultra-silky, juicy, mouth watering finish. There is so much to love about this Grenache, and while it is already utterly captivating today, it should also go on to drink beautifully for at least another decade.
