Betts and Scholl

[Mahmoud Ali]

I came across a 2009 bottle of Betts & School's 'The Chronique' Grenache. I know very little about this brand having never had a bottle and though it is tempting to try a bottle that is almost a decade old it is 15% alc/vol and I am worried that it might be an over-wrought wine. Anybody here know anything about this producer or this wine in particular?

Thanks ................... Mahmoud.

Never heard of it, but there's a few tasting notes on Vivino and CellarTracker.

Hope that helps.

Seems like a few people liked it some years back. My worry of course is that plump, fruity wines, if extracted, taste great when young but often fall apart with age.
