Mount Peak 2016 Gravity Red Blend Sonoma County
Gravity Red Blend is named for a remote, hard-to-reach block on one of the lowest slopes of the Monte Rosso Vineyard. Five varietals—Petite Sirah, Sangiovese, Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache—lend power and depth to this red blend. The wine is layered with concentrated notes of black cherry plum, black cherry, plum, blackberry and hints of cocoa powder and coffee. Woven together are layers of black truffle, caramel and toasty oak with assertive tannins and a long, concentrated finish.
James Suckling - 92 Points
"This is very characteristic with iodine, oyster-shell and very intense dried-blueberry notes. Medium to full body, ripe tannins, loads of fresh fruit and a fun, fruity finish. Drink now."
Wine Enthusiast - 92 Points
"This dark and brooding wine has an inky color, rich aromas of blueberry and blackberry jam, and an intense, layered texture of fine-grained tannins that envelope ripe dark-fruit flavors. It is full bodied, bold and flavorful. Best through 2023."
