Tensley All Blocks Tensley Vineyards Red Blend 2017

95 pts                                                               A blockbuster new Red Blend from Joe Tensley, one of the Santa Barbara region's leading Rhone varietal producers. Try this gem before it's gone. 95 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Not yet bottled, the 2017 All Blocks comes from all the vineyards Tensley works with (although it’s mostly Colson Canyon Grenache). This deep ruby/purple-colored effort offers up a terrific bouquet of smoked earth, cured meats, pepper, and both blue and black fruits. It’s voluptuous and sexy on the palate, with full-bodied richness, and is a great vintage for this cuvée." 94 Points Wine Spectator: "This red combines polish and personality, with vibrant black raspberry notes and licorice and mineral-tinged garrigue accents that take on richness and structure toward refined tannins. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2027. 350 cases made."
