Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with black fruits, cedar, spices and chocolates.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, vanilla, chocolates, tobacco and herbs.
Spicy and tangy on the finish with soft tannins.
This 11 year old GSM blend from Paso Robles is complex and tasty.
Needed a couple of hours to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
This Single Vineyard is rich and extracted. Fruit forward with a nice mouthfeel. Delicious.
Robert Parker 97 points.
I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses. Paired beautifully with the Prosciutto.
A blend of 51% Syrah, 31% Grenache and 18% Mourvedre.
15.2% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$200.

In a night of special bottles. This was a standout. Big, full of character, but balanced.

Still young, but not frightfully so. But awfully delicious! Let's see if Delectable can identify this bottle.

Very good and in a nice place. I am finding I prefer Saxum at about 5 years. Big deep fruit but with some balance and maturity.
