Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 94 Points (2022)
This young bottling will have a long cellar life, thanks perhaps to the old-vine attributes. Aromas of amaro-like myrtle and eucalyptus leaf meet with stewed strawberry and raspberry on the nose. The palate is loaded with acid, chalky in tannins, and spicy in cracked white pepper, with a core of pomegranate and black raspberry fruit.

Wines & Spirits (W&S) : 92 Points (2017)
This comes from head-trained vines planted in the 1910s, near the southern flanks of the Santa Cruz Mountains. It’s saturated with flavor, from baking spice to deep red-cherry notes, and structured by ripe, concentrated tannins. It’s a grenache with exceptional composure and grace.

Decanter (DCT) : 91 Points (2017)
Dry-farmed bush vines on their own roots from 1910, a small proportion of appassimento grapes, matured in cement and neutral oak. A minimal-intervention style, paler red than anything from the Rho^ne. Bright, perfumed, peppery cherry. Light-bodied, very drinkable and thirst-quenching, zingy.
