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.

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.

Blueberries, cherries, strawberries, very fresh and lively on the palate - not jammy or rich. Secondary flavors of mushrooms, white pepper, sage, forest floor. Perfectly balanced. This is sublime!
