"The 2019 Grenache la Paciencia Vineyard opens to a classic, dusty and red-fruited core with savory tones, worn leather and smoked cherry compote. Medium-bodied, the palate offers a fine mineral tension with an essence of umami before swaying to show the more savory and floral side of Grenache. The wine continues to gain complexity before concluding with a gorgeous floral lift, persistent spicy edge and firm tannic finish. Bravo, this is delicious juice!" -AM, 10/31/22

"Seductive and racy, with elegantly layered raspberry and cherry flavors laced with crushed stone, smoked meat and cracked pepper accents that glide toward polished tannins. Drink now through 2032. 342 cases made." -TF, 10/31/23

"The 2019 Grenache La Paciencia Vineyard lulls me in with a nuanced mix of dusty violets, wild strawberries, with stems and all, complicated by a whiff of crushed stones. This splashes across the palate, silky and refined yet energetic, with mineral-tinged red fruits that slowly saturate under an air of rosy inner florals. It leaves a reverberation of spicy tension through the finish, while becoming quite mineral and nearly salty in character. Hints of green olive and sage slowly fade. The Grenache from La Paciencia vineyard is refined for 22 months in neutral demi-muids and foudre. I love its savory profile and spicy nature, yet another year or two of cellaring is recommended. The soils of La Paciencia are much sandier than the surrounding vineyards, which tends to add an extra level of elegance to the No Girls portfolio." -EG, Oct/2022

"The aromas are downright salty, along with notes of crushed flower, plum, raspberry and olive—with the aromas most expressive without swirling. A lithe, textured, flavorful palate follows. The length is impressive." -SS, 10/1/22
