Hedges Family Estate
Red Mountain DLD Cuvée Marcel Dupont Les Gosses Vineyard Syrah
Fruit forward- ish but balanced by some grip & some core minerality. A brighter style of red fruit I’m used to but stll quite good. . Went perfectly w roast chicken & salad. French family in Washington State

Mar 26th, 2019Well, it’s the most old world of any Red Mountain wine I’ve ever tasted. Unfortunately, that also means it’s full of Brett. I was very pleasantly surprised at the oak profile, but the Brett just kinda sank it for me.

Feb 6th, 2019Deep-toned rich nose. Loads of dark, smoky crushed stones, dark blackberry fruit. Low-toned, dark, and mouthfilling. A real subwoofer of a wine. Lots of dark, plush fruit. Love the intense dark stone minerality in the long finish. I had it with pizza (a bad pairing). This type of wine would sing with a rare hangar steak.

Sep 16th, 2017Haven't had Hedges in over a year- reminded of how badass they are. A pleasant funk. Dark fruit. Fantastic.

A big and chewy wine on the tongue with lots of dark berry and plum fruit. A host of dark earth and spice and fine tannins a nice savory finish. Finish 45+ excellent+
