	Rated 93 - Pannell appears to have a special touch with Grenache, and his 2004 (fashioned from non-irrigated, 60+-year-old bush vines, and tiny yields of 1.5 tons of fruit per acre) was aged 14 months in 5-year-old French 300 liter barrels. It possesses superb purity in addition to an old style Rayas-like bouquet of black raspberries, kirsch, licorice, earth, and spice. Full-bodied, rich, and dry with substantial flavor intensity supported by a solid, tannic backbone, it should improve over the next 2-4 years, and last for a decade. - Robert Parker
