Reviewed May 2021A new vineyard release, the 2018 Grenache Fiddleneck Vineyard is cut from the same cloth yet offers a touch more fruit, with lots of wild strawberries and blueberries interwoven with violets, chalky minerality, and peppery herbs. Medium to full-bodied, with good concentration, firm yet ripe tannins, and a great finish, it's another Grenache that demands bottle age.

James Suckling
Redcurrants, wild strawberries, melon and baking spices on the nose. Some cloves, too. Full-bodied with creamy tannins. Vibrant with lively acidity and juicy character on the palate. Sour cherries and tension through the smoky finish. Nice, medium-chewy tannins.

Wine Spectator
Expressive and appealingly gamy, with multilayered raspberry, smoked meat and crushed stone accents that build tension toward refined tannins. (TF)

Wine Advocate
New this year, the 2018 Grenache Fiddleneck Vineyard has a ruby core and slight garnet rim, expressing aromas of dusty rose petals, cherry blossom and elements of plum compote, dried orange zest, iodine and a soft stemmy essence. Medium to full-bodied, the wine displays a fresh, bright expression, firm mineral essence and spiced, red-fruited nature that sways with dusty red flowers and an undercurrent of red peppercorn. The wine ends a delightfully lingering finish with a subtly spiced petrichor note that brings me back for another sip. (AM) 93+
