February 8, 2023 - There are actually (at least) two entries for this wine in CT. This one and the more popular Austin Hope GSM. They are one and the same wine. I'd recommend using the other label for richer content and reviews.
This is my second bottle of AH GSM, different vintages and will probably be the last on my regular orders. It's fine, but there are better options from AH like the 100% Mourvedre. I'm not sure why it doesn't seem to come together for me on this blend. Perhaps it's too early and the tannins aren't integrated. It definitely is distinctly California and doesn't mimic a CdP.
It's a nice glass, I'd be happy to see at a bar, but not one I'd go out of my way to acquire.
