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

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

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. — 8 years ago

Nice lemon, honey, and floral tones! Clean flavors and not too overpowering. Great with spicy food! — 11 years ago

Starts with opulent blackberry but tightens on the minerality and even tannins. 61 petite sirah, 39 zin. Should last awhile. — 12 years ago

Ripe blackberries on the nose and mouth, peppery and spicy. Curvaceous! — 6 years ago

Kelly really liked it. "A lot going on in that glass!" Craig thought it was fine, but more earthy/minerally than he typically likes. — 9 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
