2007 Cirillo '1870 Ancestor Vine' Grenache - Museum
92 points Huon Hooke, The Real Review
Medium-medium light red purple. Sweaty, slightly herbal nose; quite strongly marked by oak. Some vegetable aspects. Quite a lot of oak, really. Palate is very intense; concentrated and deep. Lively from judicious acid, and yet smooth: really delicious wine; deep and lush in flavour, elegant and opulent at same time. Very rewarding.
