Big Basin Vineyards 2018 Gabilan Mountains GSM
Winemaker Notes
The cherry kirsch Grenache comes through on the nose, along with the brooding notes of Syrah and the deep black fruit of the Mourvèdre. A classic signature of Gabilan Mountains fruit is the intensity and depth of the fruit along with a vein of minerality/crushed rock presence. Intense and powerful with a brash and youthful expression which will melt into a seductive silkiness and depth with age.
Blend: 39% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 26% Mourvèdre
91pts Jeb Dunnock
Ripe cherries, gamey strawberries, peppery herbs, and floral, orange tea-like notions all emerge from the 2018 Gabilan Mountains GSM, another medium-bodied, nicely balanced, elegant, and seamless wine that has a youthful vibe and will benefit from 2-3 years in the cellar.
