96 MICHEL-SCHLUMBERGER
2013 GSM
Vin Ruisseau - Dry Creek Valley $30
Inviting blackberry, cherry, raspberry, strawberry and blueberry aromas complemented by toffee/coffee, pepper spice, burnt chocolate and oak. The palate has a nice, spicy character, the mouthfeel is smooth and everything you’d expect from a GSM, with a finish with burnt chocolate and oak that’s slightly distracting. Albeit, a really pretty wine. (tasted 3/28/15)

A rich, well-balanced, superb Rhone-style red wine, with beautiful red, black and blue fruit flavors, splashes of pepper spice, and a nice, long lingering finish. Buy this by the case!

95 VIE
2009 L'Imaginaire Grenache

Pretty aromas of blackberry, blueberry and strawberry, with dashes of black pepper, floral elements and light traces of minerals. This is a wonderful mouthful of fruit and spice, ending in a well-balanced long, lingering spicy finish.
