This is usually one of the first picks of the year and we were blown away by the spice. More pepper than 2011! The second pick at THV was the Grenache which we co-fermentwith a little Mourvedre. It was very open and red fruited with some classic THV watermelon. Putting the two lots together was magic because the crushed black pepper came through while the rich, red fruits also persisted. It is heavenly, and I can say with confidence that it's my favorite Terry Hoage wine I have ever made.

Wine AdvocateBlended of 50% Syrah, 34% Grenache and 16% Mourvèdre, the 2015 Terry Hoage Vineyard has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and a lovely red fruit-dominant nose of red currants and cherries with hints of blackberries, mulberries, charcuterie and spice box, plus a touch of black olives. Full-bodied, firm and fine in the mouth, it has lovely vibrant red and black fruits with plenty of pepper, spice flavors and a good long finish.
