Motherf*cker! Thought I grabbed a @BedrockWineCo North Coast. Wife opened before I caught my error. Well, this is is delicious. Tastes like I'm a lion eating a zebra thigh in a blackberry bush...

From the Kick Ranch vineyard in Fountaingrove district that wasn't an AVA at the time (but it is since 2015), so labeled "Sonoma County". 12% whole clusters. 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier. Dark red with medium depth, turning slightly orange at the rim. Attractive nose, very Northern Rhône-like, with ripe black fruits and a subtle hint of lavender and thyme. Juicy black fruits, very straightforward and fresh. Not the most complex wine, but simply irresistible. Nice spicy finish and good length.2011 vintage. Abv. 14,6%, 36 euro (about 40 $).

Still primary, almost monolithic but a tasty one no doubt.

Northern Rhone nose of white pepper, blue fruit, and a bit of Parliament-like funk. Terrific Syrah.
