The 2021 Grenache She`s Electric Old Vine Single Vineyard offers beautiful aromas of Chinese five spice and fennel seed over a rich bed of cranberry and dark cherry fruits. Lovely energy and balance follow as it explodes with vibrancy and freshness - 50% whole bunches do their job with a strong heart of fruit underneath. The finish is almost fragrant as it unfurls beautifully and seamlessly. Seriously good. 94 points

The 2021 She`s Electric Old Vine Single Vineyard Grenache is like silken tofu in the mouth: it`s is all about velvety texture, except here, the fruit is punctuated and supported by both very fine tannins and tense acid. This is a very smart wine, exciting, with notes of blood, raspberry pip, pink peppercorn and red licorice. It has a texturally creamy undertow, and the tannins are powdery and smashed into the fruit. Awesome. 95 points
