Todos Ballard Canyon Red Bordeaux Blend

Decanted for an hour. Elegant dark fruit aromas. Jammy Black fruits and smoked meat flavors. Smooth finish. Not sure it's worth the $51 price tag.

I was recently at Jonata Winery and didn't try Todos Blend but did so at a tasting back east, go figure. It's a blend of 75% Syrah, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and adding Grenache, Sangiovese, Viognier, Petit Verdot & Metlot. Complex aromas of graphite, leather, almonds and damp earth. On the palate blackberry, cherry and raspberry flavors, smooth tannins on a long finish ending with oak tones. Tasting Sample.

Young but delicious

This was a Parker 93. Big wine, needed a little air and time to open. Predominantly Syrah, this exhibited massive black fruits, olive and some floral notes. Really came to life and a beauty with my double bone-in pork chop. My first Jonata.

Stemmy and green upon opening. The goods started showing about 30 minutes and a decant later. Plum and licorice aromas lead to rich black fruits, dark chocolate and graphite. A bit dry and still fairly hot on the finish. 15% ABV. 2012 vintage- wished I would have waited a few more years. Have a few bottles of 2014 that will wait a while until opening. Cheers to a quiet Friday night🤓

Great blend!!

High alcohol, hot in mouth, very jammy and plum/prune ripe. Not my style of wine, over the top.

Big. Jammy. Blue fruit. Rich.

Very flavorful.
