2008 Ken Forrester Renegade –
From Stellenbosch, South Africa this is a Rhone style blend that packs dense flavors in a well integrated wine. The man behind the counter, who I believe was Ken Forrester, said it was a blend of Shiraz and Grenache. When I asked him where the Mourvedre was he replied that there was a little in there. It tastes like a very good Chateauneuf du Pape. The wood is prominent but nice and the wine finishes very long. This is a definite buy as well.
