Picky Winers Club

I had seen this wine in my friend Christina’s dine-out pics.  Apparently they served it at C restaurant. I had tasted a similar wine before, 2004 Chateau Pesquie Terrasses, which was from the same region and with a very similar blend of grapes (grenache and syrah).  Although I did not enjoy the Chateau Pesquie entirely at the time, but wanted to try it again.  

Once I had the first sip, my palate was screaming,
“I want a steak!!!”

Haha… Yes, the smokiness and spiciness was expected.  The good full body of the wine presents such a strong essence of masculinity. It was a perfect red for enjoying a generously sized piece of New York cut.
