Massive, chewy, and muscular. Opaque in the glass with black fruits that grip like a snapping turtle. Black cherry, mulberry, blueberry. Blackberry pie with a crust left in the oven for a minute too long. This is not at all my style of wine but it gets a 9 cause it has a lot going on for sub $30 on the shelf. 14.7% abv. Puts hair on your chest.

Marietta Christo 2019 Syrah Grenache Petit Viognier. Dark inky purple. Blackberry, currant, savory, leather, complex, dark and rich. Drier that some recent Rhone wines I've tasted.

Big wine with that Syrah and petite Syrah taking center stage with jammy fruit forward tastes with a high tannin finish. Not a go to for me as I prefer a lighter touch red but not a bad change of pace for an every once in a while thing. 2015 and I think this has got a lot of years left in it.

Very unusual blend but surprisingly good. I had it two nights in a row and both times it tasted like velvety dark chocolate, with some complex notes of dried berries and herbs. Made by a small family winery, and it tastes like it was made with love.

It’s a good wine. Not overly complex or@memorable but Love the heavy bottle. It’s been rated as high as 96 (Parker?) not remotely close to that rating. I would buy it again but it’s not special.
