54% Syrah, 20% Petite Sirah, 16% Mourvèdre, 10% Grenache
Paderewski and Catapult Vineyards, Willow Creek District, Paso Robles
Notes from Jordan: “The myriad of juicy, herbal and reductive aromas at first sniff are indicative of the four varieties that make up the 2016 Ingenuity bottling – Syrah, Petite Sirah, Mourvèdre and Grenache. The healthy dollop of Petite Sirah in this year’s blend, 20%, gives great palate delineation and more seriousness to the blend.”
