Exuberant and expressive! Classic Zinfandel spice, brightly fruited and well structured, delightfully juicy and just downright delicious. Dark raspberry, blue fruits, soft tannins, and deeply pleasurable. This wine punches so far above its weight it’s in a class of its own.
Organically farmed, own-rooted, head-trained and dry-farmed vines planted in 1915 in the silica-rich sandy soils of the east side of the Mokelumne River AVA. Potent, perfumed, and incredibly deep. Redolent of cocoa, pineapple grass, roast lamb and herby meat marinade. Complex and dynamic, with silky smooth tannins.
Union Sacre is best known for Alsace-inspired whites, so a Paso Robles Cabernet is a bit of a plot twist, and a welcome one. The winery was founded by two longtime friends who arrived on the Central Coast from opposite ends of the earth: Xavier Arnaudin, a French-trained oenologist and former boxer, and Philip Muzzy, a self-taught designer from Michigan. That French sensibility shows up here as restraint. Fermented in concrete tanks, this is a Cabernet built for drinking now rather than for a decade of waiting, with deep dark fruit, a spice-and-tobacco edge and tannins that stay smooth. Paso Cabernet with balance on its mind.
Figs, sous-bois, spice and cedar, with dark blackcurrant fruit, lively acidity and fresh, firm tannins. Refined and mellow, silky and complex. A good example of a fully mature Rioja. 93…
Honey and caramel combine to form a sweet note against a light punch of spice and zesty citrus. The bourbon manages to deliver just enough potency to captivate its audience, however it offers a relatively thin mouthfeel.
