Saxum Vineyards
James Berry Vineyard Red Rhône Blend
This wine is so different compared to its youth. I remember a lush, jammy, sexy wine full of cassis, dark fruit and vanilla. Now it carries some nuance. Sous bois on the nose with cedar, tobacco, leather and dried cherry. I prefer the young and slutty version but this is really delightful nonetheless. Would be interested to revisit in another 10 years

Dec 1st, 2017It used to be just fruit and power. Now this wine in turning into something really fun. Very enjoyable and better with steak.

Jan 3rd, 2016Pretty solid bottle of juice right here. Not the most complex showing but a good amount of rich dark fruit.

Aug 3rd, 2015Love these wines with some age...bramble, blackberries, figs/smooth mouthfeel/savory, black fruits, black olives on the palate, long, complex finish. Really beautiful wine.
