Robert Parker 95
The 2018 Harmonie is made up of 70% Grenache, 16% Mourvedre and 14% Syrah, made with 15% stem inclusion and aged 18 months in 20% new puncheons. Medium ruby-purple in color, it’s scented of crushed cherries and boysenberry with nuances of aniseed, violet and dried orange peel with loads of spicy accents. The medium-bodied palate bursts with ultra juicy, bitters-laced fruits, expansive, grainy and finishing long with expansive flavors. This is delicious now but will age well in bottle. 400 cases produced.
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030
Vinous 95
Deep, brilliant maroon. Exotic, highly fragrant aromas of fresh, spice-tinged cherry, blueberry, potpourri and incense, along with a hint of succulent herbs. Broad and fleshy but lively as well, offering palate-staining red and dark fruit, candied lavender, cola and exotic spice flavors that slowly firm up through the midpalate. Shows outstanding definition and floral lift on an impressively long, smooth finish that features well-integrated tannins and resonating spiciness.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2032
Jeb Dunnuck 95
The Grenache-dominated cuvee is the 2018 Harmonie, which is 70% Grenache, 16% Syrah, and 14% Mourvedre. It’s a big wine, yet it shows a fresher, beautifully vibrant nose of black raspberries, licorice, candied flowers, and spice that opens up beautifully with time in the glass. Brought up mostly in neutral barrel, it still has a kiss of background oak in its aromas and texture and is beautifully balanced, full-bodied, and elegant on the palate. It’s a well put together Grenache that reminds me slightly of a more modern styled Chateauneuf du Pape. Drink it over the coming decade or so.
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030

In the words of winemaker, Matt Trevisan:
“Overthinker is the liquid diary of my life as a... winegrower and winemaker. It’s the first wine I produced from the estate vineyard that I planted in 2005. I was called an ‘overthinker’ as a kid because I constantly opted for more information—and I’m still that way. Overthinker is now nearly 15 vintages deep, and it’s a story that continues to be written.”

2018 Dragonette, MJM Syrah, Sta. Rita Hills 1x75cl
Blend: 95% Syrah, 4% Grenache and 1% Viognier
Vintage Production: 340 cases
MJM is Dragonette's signature, Syrah-based blend, named in honor of the team's wives and coconspirators in this venture,... Mitchi, Jen and Michelle. Syrah from cooler sites in Santa Barbara makes wines of extraordinary depth, aromatic complexity, elegance and longevity, on par with those from the great growing regions of the world.
The John Sebastiano Vineyard (Sta. Rita Hills) has steep hillsides with sandy loam soils. Buffeted daily by high winds and steeped in fog, this cool site produces wines with remarkable aromatics and flavours of spices, dark fruits, meat and earth. Stolpman in (Ballard Canyon) boasts rolling hills of clay loam, underpinned with limestone. Extreme deficit farming and older vines (some 20+ years) produce low yields of spectacularly dark, intense red fruits and meaty notes. A portion of the
fruit comes from the exclusive, steeply pitched high-density blocks which sit on thick bands of limestone. Larner (Ballard Canyon) has thin sandy soils on rolling hills. 20-year-old vines yield dark, rich, meaty Syrah fruit with blueberry fruits and game. The fruit from nearby Kimsey (Ballard Canyon) is dark with rich flavors of blueberries and blackberries seasoned with spices.
