Chopping Block Paso Robles Syrah Blend 2017

Shay A
9.3

Another one of my bottles opened for a massive Paso theme. After having the 2016 last year during a virtual tasting with Connor of Fulldraw, I think this 2017 has more upfront appeal whereas the 2016 has a touch more longevity.

I double decanted this for an hour, then put it in a decanter at my destination where I followed it for the next 4hrs. The profile didn’t really change all that much after the first 1-2hrs. This is high octane without being overblown and flabby. Half Syrah, with the remaining split between Grenache and Mourvèdre. Gorgeous royal purple in the glass. Aromatically I didn’t pick up a lot of smoked meat/savory Syrah notes, but mostly a lot of dark chocolate dipped black cherries, dark floral potpourri and fleshy fruits...as if it were mostly Grenache. The palate was the same...high toned ripe fruit with nice lift and acidity, and an airy jammy character I find in high quality Paso wines.

I saved the last third of this and opened again the next day and there was zero change. Best over the next 3-5yrs for this type of profile.

Well… it was a game! The hawks definitely capitalized on turnovers. First half was fun. Second…. Not so much 🤣

Interpretation Paso Robles Tempranillo 2017

I had no idea what to expect with this Tempranillo, but it is delicious. It is deep and rich with notes of cherries, dark-chocolate-covered caramels with a hint of lightly smoked sea salt. Bigger and more complex than Flor de Pingus, in my opinion. @Connor McMahon and @Rebecca McMahon are doing amazing work — 4 years ago
