Score 91/100 · Drink 2007-2013, Robert Parker, Aug 2007
The most hedonistic effort is the 2005 Cuvee Jeanne-Marie Williamson-Dore Vineyard, a blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 20% Mourvedre. A gorgeous perfume of raspberries, white chocolate, and spice soars from the glass of this dark ruby-colored 2005. It possesses crisp acids, and not the weight or power of the two Syrahs, but a beautiful, southern Rhone-like kirsch and raspberry fruitiness, medium to full body, and plenty of spice, pepper, and earth. This beauty should drink nicely for 4-6 years. Tel. (805) 937-4251; Fax (805) 937-0415
