2012 Saxum "Terry Hoage" Paso Robles Rh̫ne Blend

Just bottled five weeks ago, the 2012 Terry Hoage Vineyard (330 cases) is a thrilling blend of 51% Syrah, 31% Grenache and 18 % Mourvedre. It has an up front approachable and sexy feel in its cherry blossom and black raspberry fruit, crushed flowers and spice aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, concentrated and with sweet tannin, it‰۪s the most ready-to-go in the lineup, yet will still have 10-12 years of longevity. (JD)
