Saxum Vineyards James Berry Vineyard Rocket Block Grenache Syrah 2018

Limited new release from Saxum. 99 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Based on 63% Grenache, 13% Mataro, 12% Syrah, and the rest Graciano, the 2018 James Berry Vineyard Rocket Block is another incredible vintage for this cuvée, which comes from a small parcel of the James Berry Vineyard. Offering a huge nose of deep black fruits as well as a meaty, floral, full-bodied style, it shows Grenache's incredible ability to offer richness with no sensation of heaviness. With ripe tannins, flawless balance, and a monster of a finish, it's going to be in the same league as the 2015 and 2016." ...Needing no introduction for anyone that’s followed the Wine Advocate or the wine scene in Paso Robles for any time in the past decade, Heather and Justin Smith’s Saxum Vineyards continues to fashion sensational, world-class wines from a number of top sites on the west side of Paso Robles."
