This one however was really pretty good,
Light ruby red, really AvA driven floral on the nose.
All in all a good drinking wine from that region,
It's a delicate wine and I can see why some of these are not holding up,
Drink now. (1700 views) | | | Tasted by cpoulos on 3/14/2016 & rated 84 points: Ok, not great. A little weedy and lacking vibrancy for my taste. (2150 views) | | | Tasted by BuzzzzOff on 9/23/2015 & rated 88 points: Brown ruby red. Initially, heavy alcohol and flour on the nose. The heavy alcohol dissipated fairly quickly (about one hour breathing in the bottle) into fresh and lively raspberries, strawberries, touch of oak, caramel and soft pepper on the nose. Interesting and nice. Ripe cherries and strawberries with subtle tannins and a fairly long, lingering finish. Nice wine. (2339 views) | | | Tasted by difran on 7/3/2015 & rated 84 points: Dried fruit, almost borderline raisin. Not sure if it was intended style, or baked bottle (1742 views) | | | Tasted by Gregory Dal Piaz on 1/12/2015 & rated 86 points: Spicy with wood emerging on the nose covering rather red fruited notes that are framed with hints of green strawberry tops and a touch of candied fennel herbaceousness. With plenty of fruit up front, this starts out rather large scaled, juicy, and plush with sweet cherry and strawberry fruit, along with some sweet, toasty wood spice. Theres not much tannin here, and the alcohol (15% on the label) is obvious on the backend and the hot finish. Falling off a bit on the palate, this feels like the sugar got ahead of the flavor development here, though i kind of like the green herb accents. At its core this is not notably better than a good Cotes du Rhone. (1598 views) | | | Tasted by affordableCollector on 2/16/2014 & rated 87 points: Paso Robles Rhone Rangers (Broken Earth Winery): faint red, in color. strawberry, cherry, barn yard, on the nose. sweet, smoke, currant, cherry, spice, on the palate. medium acid, on the finish. (2312 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 2/13/2014: Big and massive red berry fruit. Richly styled for sure. Does California Grenache balance Grenache? (1666 views) | | | Tasted by beezer6 on 9/11/2013 & rated 91 points: Rhone Rangers - American Rhone Celebration (City Winery, Chicago, IL): Peppery and meaty. Gray peppercorns. (1629 views) | | | Tasted by affordableCollector on 2/17/2013 & rated 85 points: Paso Robles Rhone Rangers (Broken Earth Winery): light, amber, red in color. dark red fruit, earth, herbs, on the nose. smoke, cherry, blueberry, vanilla, oak on the palate. medium acid and tannins on the finish.

| Austin Hope Producer websiteGrenache Varietal character (Appellation America) - Read more about GrenacheUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Central Coasthttp://www.ccwinegrowers.org/links.html
