Steven Mirassou's Bordeaux blend has some of the best qualities of 2011: lifted, aromatic, varietal character and a backbone of acidity and minerality that will age for 20+. — 10 years ago
Smooth and delicious. Fruit forward and well balanced. — 10 years ago
(Grenache, Mourvèdre, Petite Sirah)
Very enjoyable, easy drinking. Big Mourvèdre fan. I like how the Grenache lightens the Mourvèdre, without masking it, and finishes with plush Petite Sirah. — 11 years ago

Ok seriously, this wine is intensely dark fruit. Plums, currents. The aroma is incredible and the taste is long lasting loveliness. — 10 years ago
