Moses,

Aren't CdPs (Beaucastel and St. Cosme in this case) blends with varying degrees of Grenache in them? Priorat is pure Grenache, and new American oak barrels to boot (even winder flavor variation). They are different animals and as much as I like Grenache blends, 100% Grenache when done right is magic.
