2021 Tumbled Granite (Red)
95-97 pts. (Barrel Sample) Anthony Mueller, The Wine Advocate Issue 263, May 2023
Tasting Notes
"The 2021 Tumbled Granite red is a harmonious encore to the acclaimed 2020 vintage. Representing the pinnacle of red wine making, Tumbled Granite is a winemaker's selection of the vintage's purist expression of Double D Vineyard.
The Merlot dominated 2021 Tumbled Granite red offers aromatic notes of oak spice, fresh plum and dusted cocoa and unfolds on the palate with elegant, yet powerful tannin. A sweet dense core showcases ripe blue and black fruit, graphite and cocoa, finishing with seductive oak spice that lingers on the mouth, luxurious finish. Decant at least 1-2 hours prior to enjoyment. "
