Last year the 2010 #Authenticity was out WOTY and The 2011 is an impressive following!! Syrah/Mourvèdre and a touch of Viognier.

2011 Vintage. 15.7% Alcohol. 66% Syrah, 33% Mourvèdre, 1% Viognier from the Paderewski Vineyard. Lovely plush fruit bomb to enjoy following our Paso Robles pickups weekend.

Very ripe, opened with 1+hour decant. For the price just okay.

Rich Paso fruit all the way. This has mellowed out a bit and is drinking well, but still a big powerful wine.

One of the best values out there for the money. Well balanced, velvety. Big acid finish

I promise I'll start sharing wines that are available!! This is a good one though. The Epoch folks, like many Paso/Templeton/Hwy 46 friends, do wonders with Rhone red blends. Yum. This one is drier and more serious - something to savor independently.
