This vineyard keeps getting stronger and stronger as the vines mature and we get a handle on taming this rugged, mountainous fruit. It's definitely more black fruit focused than the JBV, and a little more dense and chewy, not quite as savory, but it still has a nice loamy earth side to it. I think it's a show stopper. The tannins are remarkable but will definitely benefit from a few years of aging (as will all of our wines). A real banger.

The 2020 G2 Vineyard, which comes from a great vineyard on the west side of Paso Robles, is based largely on Grenache but includes 21% Mourvèdre, 14% Graciano, 11% Syrah, and 2% Carignan. It shows the denser, chewier style of the vintage but has rocking levels of black fruits, charcoal, peppery herbs, and leather. Full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, it offers good tannins and outstanding length.

Potent and packed with tension at the core, yet layered on top are rich, dramatic flavors of huckleberry, dark mocha espresso and savory herbes de Provence, which build intensity toward broad-shouldered tannins. Grenache, Mataro, Graciano, Syrah and Carignan. Drink now through 2032. 867 cases made.
