January 22, 2023 - Dark fruit, a heavy dose of oak spice and underbrush. The oak is riding in the front of the bus. This wine just needs a little more time in the bottle for everything to come together. Good potential.

December 15, 2021 - 55% Grenache 40% Mourvedre 5% Syrah blend of Rhone varietals. Fruity, dense, dark, light, lively, and brooding, all at once.

November 22, 2021 - Not sure if this was an off bottle, maybe slightly flawed, something ... but I normally love these bottling sandwiches this just didn’t hit any of the notes I’ve come to expect.

September 6, 2021 - This is a delicious GSM Blend from Paso Robles. Soft and smooth with nice complexity.
Showing a great nose, very flowery and complex.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blueberries, currants, light oak, spices, vanilla, light barnyard, peppercorn, tobacco leaf, chocolates, coffee, cola, earth and black tea.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This 5 year old is drinking very nicely now and will continue to age in the next 10 years.
Good right out of the bottle and better after 2 hours of airtime. Peaked after 3 hours, showing nice complexity and mouthfeel.
I paired it with a Charcuterie board. Very tasty.
A blend of 55% Grenache, 40% Mourvedre and 5% Syrah. Aged in French oak barrels for 22 months.
15% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

September 2, 2021 - Pop and pour. Bold and pleasing Rhone blend with red and black fruit, strong tannins, strong woody backbone. Improved with air, recommend an hour decant.
