Really great wine and I can drink Barge all day. Such a great producer really coming into his own now. Awesome nose of violets, bacon, olives, meat, game, and just unreal florals and granite. Wide open nose. So many herbs. Just amazing. Palate is energetic and has great acidity with lush berry fruit, engaging granitic minerality and velvety tannins. Needs some air but that long finish tells me it will stick the landing. — 5 months ago

@delectable This is not syrah it is the blanc.

Did I just have this in January? Yup! lol. Anyway nose is young and grapey. Super young. Dark berry and bright red berry fruit. Maybe some pomegranate? Really unique nose. Good syrah sweetness. Palate also young and grapey. But elegant and meaty as all can be. Charcuterie, rich dark berry fruit, super concentrated and just so young but has energy, freshness and acidity. Needs mega air. I’ll be back. Nose becomes more civilized with air and settles into spiced dark berries. Palate is so gamey, so olives and so feral. Really wild St. Jo. — 2 years ago
