Shake it, shake it baby! Another winner from @jolielaidewines that I couldn’t leave alone in the cellar any longer. Gorgeous blackberry, boysenberry and floral notes mix with black cherry and hints of charred sage and a touch of earth that linger with powdery tannins in the finish. Fantastic acidity. A blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and a dollop of Viognier from the increasingly legendary Shake Ridge Ranch.

This needed a day to really hit its stride. Just kept the cork in on the counter. Tons of fruit from blackberries, cherries, also a bit of stone fruit. Some herbs, stone, and just a touch of flowers. It really is well balanced. This seems like a Beaujolais-CDP love child. Amazing for the climate this comes from.

Ethereal flowers and amplified fruit with touch of herb and earth. Sometimes too easy to drink

Dark colors and flavors but an energizing lightness. Rich yet not taunting, each sip tells a story.

This is what it’s like when you finish a good book.

2017 GSM from @jolielaidewines doesn’t disappoint, carrying the usual deliciousness that seems to plague everything Scotty Schultz touches. Boysenberry and blueberry and chopped herbs all have a sweet / saline juiciness that grabs you by the scruff of the neck and says, no really, have another glass. Really.

Red berries, olive brine, clay, sunshine... An easy drinker, yet complex enough to keep interest.
