Five Short Graybehls

**TASTING NOTES:**classic Grenache aromas of fresh and dried wild strawberries, ripe blue berries, and raspberries that are accented by baking spices and a floral lavender underpinning. A creamy, full mid-palate and firm yet soft tannins bring it home. And theres a subtle herbal undertone, the result of the 100% whole cluster fermentation we use. Drink over the next 3 to 5 years. (AbV 14.4%, pH 3.71, TA 5.62 g/L)BARRELSNeutral French oak with 9 months in barrel, never racked.**TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:**The word grayble originated from the show Adventure Time and refers to short fables from the distant past relayed to the viewer by a being named Cuber. Since they are of the distant past, it was revealed that Cuber lives far in the future relative to the usual events of the show. Each grayble typically has a moral or lesson to it, though your mileage may vary in how useful that lesson is.**PAIRS WITH (winery recommended):**Nothing specific, but they do say, a perfect wine for food or enjoying on its own.**OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option):**A good story.
