Description

Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 94
Lots of lively cassis and blackberry fruits as well as floral peppery notes emerge from the 2018 Grenache Basilisk, a 100% Grenache from the Russian River. As with all these latest releases from Keplinger, it's pure, elegant, and impeccably made. Drink this medium to full-bodied, seamlessly textured Grenache over the coming 7-8 years. Drink 2021-2029.

Wine Tasting Notes
The Basilisk is a massive, yet ethereal wine with aromas of vibrant red raspberry, black tea, lavender, bergamot oil, vetiver, pencil lead. The super-silky entry opens to broad, velvety, palate-coating tannins and flavors of raspeberry jam, star anise, and earl grey tea. A beauty. This wine will cellar effortlessly for 15 years or longer.
