"Combining power with finesse, this is dark, dense, intense and chewy, with layers of dark berry, mineral, spice, sage and cedar. The flavors are pure, focused, persistent and increasingly complex, ending with gritty black licorice, rye bread-laced tannins. Best Justin in some time. Syrah and Grenache . . . . [Only] 291 cases made." Wine Spectator, Feb 28, 2011 |
