Limerick Lane Russian River Valley Syrah Grenache 2013

95 Points Parker                                                                         A fantastic new release from Limerick Lane, one of our favorite California wineries. Limited. 93 Points Robert Parker:  "An amazing wine is their blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache, the 2013 Syrah/Grenache, which again sees almost all neutral oak barrels. Deep purple, with a sexy nose of spring flowers, blackberries, Christmas spices, licorice and forest floor, it’s deep, full-bodied, voluptuously textured, opulent and just a stunningly rich, concentrated wine. I’m surprised the alcohol is only14.1%. Drink now-2023.... ...This long-moribund winery, which started off so impressively and then went through several personal tragedies, has been resurrected under new ownership by the Bilbro family, who has long-owned the Marietta Cellars winery (known for their sensational values). Brothers Jake and Scott Bilbro are doing a magnificent job with the Limerick Lane wines, most Zinfandel-dominated efforts, but also some intriguing blends that readers will adore."
