It's pretty tannic, so it's a wonderful food wine, but on its own, not so much. My guess it's a good wine to age. — 4 years ago

This wine is medium dark red in the glass and has a nose of strawberry and cherry, with an earthy element added to it -sort of a Beaujolais feel. The palate offers up brilliant cherry notes and a racy acidity, along with rather firm tannins. The oak treatment - only five months neutral - make this a great choice for backyard cookouts this summer. Don't be afraid to ice down this unusual grape. Valdiguié is almost extinct, I'm told. It was once called Napa Gamay. — 5 years ago

So I am always posting about Paso Rhône wines and here is yet another. My wheelhouse I am afraid. This one is from Thacher and is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Counoise instead of the usual Mourvèdre. Very balanced blend enjoyable right out of the bottle. The Grenache is definitely the first expression and one can taste the Syrah but the Counoise does add an interesting wrinkle. We enjoyed this very much and would buy it again no question. Well done Thacher! — 7 years ago

Best zin I've had in years...maybe ever. Earthy terroir not too funky...smooth as a bell and we paired it with chimichurri rib eye...perfecto. — 9 years ago

Ying and Yang with the grape varietals here, but they meet nicely in the middle! Juicy bright fruit with herbaceousness and woodiness. — 5 years ago

This wine has a medium garnet tint to it, but is full red, not rosato red. The nose is amazing - there is a bit of raspberry, a touch of redwood and a hint of cinnamon. I don't recall ever smelling a wine like it. On the palate, again, amazing. Red berries of some sort dominate - like the kind we would pick along the railroad tracks in East Texas - and there is a mild tartness. The tannins are firm enough for those burgers from the grill and the acidity is refreshing. Chill this for your backyard barbecues and everyone will want to know what it is, and where they can get some. — 5 years ago

Really enjoyed this, and I’m not usually a Syrah kind of guy. Dark purple with medium+ staining, I enjoyed this Syrah because, while young and powerful, wasn’t over oaked and over proof- there is some subtlety here, especially inorganic notes. — 9 years ago
