Kale Anderson is the winemaker at Pahlmeyer and his new red under his own label is stunning. A newcomer to discover now. Highly recommended 93 Points Robert Parker: "The 2014 Heritage McGah Vineyard from Rutherford, is 87% Grenache and the rest 8% Mourvèdre and 5% Syrah. This is another sexy wine, coming in at 15.5% natural alcohol. Peppery, Provençal herb and strawberry notes soar from the glass of this fragrant, intriguing wine. It is medium to full-bodied with loads of glycerin, a voluptuous texture and a long, pure finish. Drink it over the next 5-6 years." Only 114 cases produced.

Medium ruby red with a touch of garnet. A bit tight on the pop and pour with some dark raspberries, some more strawberries, sweet spices, roses, and dried herbs. Layered palate with tons of dark floral notes, some cinnamon, dark berries and a touch of bramble. Excellent structure and acidity, balanced too. Medium tannins (6/10) and rounded. Long and semi-dry finish. Drink from 2018 till 2028. | Sample from the winery - $70 - 87% Grenache, 8% Mourvèdre and 5% Syrah - 5 barrels

Strawberry jam and cigar box on the nose, the palate is spicy with strong red fruit flavors (strawberries). Very fun, pop and pour GSM blend.
