  If you have never had a Rhone GSM, or already love them, This beauty from Paso Robles California is delightful any night of the week. It was wonderful tonight with mashed potatoes and gravy , chicken nuggets and fresh sliced tomatoes fresh mozzarella and fresh basil drizled with aged balsamic vinegar. Very nearly perfect.
  8/8/22- Had the rest of the bottle tonight with spaghetti, with Olive oil, garlic, basil and fresh quartered garden tomatoes. OMG, perfect pairing. Delicious medium - full bodied mouthfeel, with a lovely balance of sweetness tart acidity and sweet berries. This wine caresses your mouth!

  This is always one of our favorite reds. This is the wine that caused us to fall in love with, and seek out the Rhone red blends. Delicious tonight with mushroom risotto, fresh green peas, and MorningStar chicken nuggets.

  Soft new world GSM, drinking beautifully right now. Maybe good for another 2 years max but don't wait.

  A rather pedestrian wine from a rather pedestrian area of a wine region. Yet there is something to this wine that has me thinking it has potential to improve. Great acidity and equal amounts of fruits for a Grenache dominated wine. Ageable and not worth opening now as I suspect and hope I will improve.

  A pretty ordinary red blend without much to say about it except "pleasant." The 2018 was highly recommended to us, but the local dealers only had this '17 so I tried it... hope the '18 is better when they get it next month.
