Friday, March 19, 2021 - Retail $20. 33% Syrah, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, 3% Mourvèdre, 2% Grenache, 2% Counoise, 2% Sangiovese, 2% Petit Verdot. Wow. Nine. Count 'em *nine* varieties here and I am fairly certain that *has* to be a record for any wine I have tried (but I am equally sure it's not--but it's up there). Another peculiarity? I sampled the 2018 several months ago ahead of this 2017 (long story). My feelings about this wine mirror fairly closer its slightly younger sibling: great fruit, wonderful tartness, balance, depth. All of that for under twenty bucks? You must be joking. Seriously. Joking.
