Epoch Estate Wines
Ingenuity Red Rhone Blend
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
Deep ruby in color with a short brick rim.
Beautiful nose of stewed plums, cherries, raisins, dried figs, black currants, wildflowers, cedar, vanilla, alcohol, licorice, spices, tobacco, light earth, chocolates and dark coffee.
Full bodied and bold with medium acidity.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, cooked plums, sweet cherries, figs, raisins, cedar, licorice, cola, chocolates, vanilla, coffee, tobacco, peppercorn and espresso.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and red chili powder.
This is a wonderful Syrah blend from Paso Robles. Rich and elegant. This 8 year old is Showing great complexity with a great mouthfeel.
Peaking now and will be good in the next couple of years, so drink up if you have any.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime.
Drinks like an aged Napa Petite Sirah. Delicious.
Robert Parker 96 points. Wine Enthusiasts 94 points.

15.8% alcohol by volume.
94 points.

This stuff was absolutely amazing. Like, a baby SQN, and not near the price. Certified organic, and owned by two Dallas natives!
A blend of 2 great vineyards: Paderewksi (which is used in some of the Saxum wines), and Catapult.

I love @epochwines this GSM blend sings with black currant and boysenberry. Deep purple and rich mouthfeel make an incredible experience.

Jan 9th, 2020Yes yes yes. GSM from Paso. There are things that make you happy, and this is one of them. New world wine at its finest. Not a huge nose, but rich opulent mouthfeel, with coco and expresso and olive tapenade on the pallet mixed with black fruit. 20second finish leaves you wanting more and more.

Epoch Estate Wines previously York Mountain Winery which was founded by my wife’s family. This wine is beautiful. Complex full body. Smoke flavor does not over power the fruit. Nice long finish that sticks with you.
