Doesn't matter what your step-dad said, this cherry-licorice-lacquered Harley was made for sweet sunset joyrides. So when Liz Basinger's eyes go wide at the engine's meaty cinnamon growl, you've got no choice. Pistons dripping molasses, dual tailpipes blowing grilled-herb smoke, with pines whizzing by on either side. Her arms wrapped around your purloined leather jacket, strawberry sweet nothings in your ear-you're going faster, faster, intoxicated by the open road. Now if you can just figure out how to break.

The 2018 Late Bloomer Grenache was vinified with 45% whole clusters and matured for 48 months in 45% new French oak. Deep ruby-purple, it opens with tones of vanilla and Christmas spice over a core of red and black cherries, currants and touches of incense and potpourri. The palate is supple and seamless with a concentrated yet detailed core of fruit and a very long, spicy finish. 563 cases were made.
