Join our winemaker Jordan Fiorentini on Thursday, April 30th at 5 PM PST as she tastes through four vintages of Ingenuity (2012-2015)! We hope you will pop the cork(s) on your own library of Ingenuity or purchase a bottle from our Online Store, so you can taste along with her. Jordan will be answering questions as she dives deep into the nuances of this blend and how it has changed over the years. This is a free, live event that is sure to be “epoch.” We hope to see you online then!

Paderewski and Catapult Vineyards, Willow Creek District, Paso Robles
51% Syrah, 28% Mourvèdre, 14 % Petite Sirah, 7% Grenache
Notes from Jordan: “The 2015 Ingenuity presents all its characteristic black and blue fruits, spice, and licorice, however, it does so in a more reserved fashion than most vintages. Enjoy the brambleberry, roasted herbs, smoked meats, graphite, wet rock, and sweet tobacco notes that ride high on the palate, continuously evolving.”

Notes from Jordan: “This wine is everything we all know and love about Ingenuity: rich Syrah, bright fruit from Grenache, earthiness from Mourvédre, and great length and texture from Petite.”

Notes from Jordan: “The 2013 Ingenuity is a poster child for our beloved GSM + Petite Syrah blend. As usual, neither too feminine nor too masculine in nature, Ingenuity does not play by the wine rule book.”…read full tasting note here.
