LUNCH WINE
Reddish in color with medium intensity.
Red fruits on the nose with light oak, tobacco leaf, Indian spices and herbs.
Medium bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with sweet raspberries, cherries, plums, black currants, coffee, oak, licorice, light earth, herbs, peppercorn, garrigue, dark chocolates and black tea.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very unique Rhone blend from Paso Robles. Has a Châteauneuf-du-Pape feel to it.
Showing nice complexity with a soft mouthfeel. Elegant and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and interesting.
Very tasty and easy drinking right out of the bottle. Tannins show up after 2 hours in the decanter.
Still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years. Has good potential to become a 93+ point wine.
I paired it with grilled Picanha.
A blend of 40% Mourvedre, 28% Grenache, 22% Syrah, 4% Vaccarese, 3% Counoise and 3% Cinsault.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

[75% Roussanne, 18% Grenache Blanc, 7% Picpoul] Waxy, oily, viscous, floral aromas on this predominantly Roussanne blend, very tart acid balance (likely from the Picpoul), crisp, some fatness, comes across as very young and in need of further aging, lovely Central Coast Rhône blend!! — 3 days ago
