2020 Thompson GSM

"The 2020 Thompson Vineyard GSM is more Grenache-dominated and is based on 58% Grenache, 22% Syrah, and 20% Mourvèdre. Cool climate-like notes of peppery herbs, spice, game, and ripe black cherries define the aromatics, and this beauty hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, nicely integrated acidity and tannins, and a great finish. It will keep for 7-8 years." ~ Jeb Dunnuck "…a very pretty wine for the year. Crushed flowers, sweet dried cherry, mint, pipe tobacco, incense and licorice lend notable aromatic presence throughout. This light to medium-bodied red is a charmer. Drink it over the next few years." ~ Antonio Galloni's Vinous "Dark cherry, leather and loam-laced, rocky-soil aromas converge on the nose of this single-vineyard cuvée of 58% Grenache, 22% Syrah and 20% Mourvèdre. The palate is layered in baked strawberry, dried meat, red plum and ample red-spice flavors." ~ Wine Enthusiast
