Gorgeous, with boysenberry, blackberry and raspberry fruit seamlessly layered, lined with polished mesquite and alder notes and backed by a long, anise-, black tea- and fruitcake-filled finish. Dense, but sleek and refined, with serious latent depth. Best from 2015 through 2025. 665 cases made. By Wine Spectator, Oct 2013.
Coming all from granite soils and an early ripening terroir, the 2011 Saint-Joseph Lieu-Dit Saint Joseph is a beautiful, medium-bodied, 100% Syrah blend that gives up notions of sweet and sour cherries, steak tartare, underbrush and crushed stone-like minerality. Scheduled to be bottled at the end of this month (October), it is a classic, gamey effort that will drink nicely for a decade. By Jeb Dunnuck @ Wine Advocate, Dec 2013.
Dark purple. Cassis, blackberry, dark chocolate and a hint of cracked pepper on the intensely perfumed nose. Sweet, concentrated and expansive, with bright acidity lifting the smoky black and blue fruit flavors. Chewy tannins build slowly on the lively, persistent finish, which leaves sappy blueberry and peppery spice notes behind. By Josh Raynolds @ International Wine Cellar, Mar 2014. |
