The 2022 G2 Vineyard checks in as 44% Grenache, 19% Mataro, 18% Graciano, 14% Syrah, and 5% Carignan that’s clearly from one of the leading sites on the west side of Paso Robles. Blackberries, red plums, Asian spice, pepper, candied violets, and incense-like nuances all shine in this killer wine. With full-bodied richness, a round, layered mouthfeel, sweet yet certainly present tannins, and a great finish, this heavenly bottle of wine deserves 2-3 years of bottle age and will evolve gracefully over the following 15-20 years. It might be the wine of the vintage in 2022.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

The 2022 G2 Vineyard is composed of 44% Grenache, 19% Mataro, 18% Graciano, 14% Syrah and 5% Carignan that spent 22 months in a mixture of 600-liter and 300-liter barrels, 77% new. The nose is deep, charred and brooding, clearly displaying this site's burly, unabashed power. The palate is a split personality that combines extreme, plush, opulent ripe fruits with a beautifully refined, elegant structure with impressive energy and clarity. The finish is coiled and long, ceaselessly expanding in its grip and dimension, which should carry this wine gracefully well past its 15th birthday.

The 2022 G2 Vineyard is a blend of 44% Grenache, 19% Mataro, 18% Graciano, 14% Syrah, and 5% Carignan. It was aged for 22 months in 300-liter and 600-liter barrels, 77% new. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it comes barreling out of the glass with exuberant notes of red currant jelly, Bing cherries, and preserved plums, giving way to hints of mint tea, fallen leaves, and cloves. The full-bodied palate has velvety tannins and just enough freshness to support the gregarious red berry and savory flavors, finishing on a lingering minty note.

Intense, the 2022 G2 Vineyard bursts from the glass with a mix of crushed raspberry, violet pastille and autumnal spice. Though silky smooth and weighty, this wine lacks the crisp acidity expected. Instead, it offers masses of ripe wild berries, swirling around a core of intriguing mineral notes with a hint of clove. It takes on a liquid floral concentration through the finish, with subtle tannins, hints of baking spice and sweet herbs.
