Red and purple fruits marinated with aged wines lead the nose. Phenolic, candied, raisin-ing, juicy, ripe, crushable are notes that follow and flow up through the nostrils and into the mind. Merlot is here too flirting with honeyed saffron. Our Inspired® Grape Ape is a Flavor Lab cross between Grandaddy Purple and south-facing vineyard. Granddaddy Purple is a prominent indica hybrid from Northern California that combines Purple Urkle & Big Bud genetics that is a Genghis Khan-like ancestor to many of today’s purple varieties.
