RATINGS

92Robert M. Parker Jr.

Wild blueberry & floral aromas give it a distinctive style... An earthy terroir character permeates its blue & black fruit flavors. The finish reveals moderate tannin as well as crisp acidity, resulting in vigor & liveliness on the palate.

91+ Stephen Tanzer

Good full, saturated ruby. Liqueur-like aroma dominated by candied blackberry. At once cool and superconcentrated, with penetrating black fruit flavors complicated by mint, pepper and licorice...

PRODUCER

Pax

Pax Wine Cellars was founded in 2000 by Pax Mahle, a self-trained winemaker, and Joe Donelan, an investor and wine collector who owned 55% of Pax Wine Cellars. The Sonoma County winery became a cult producer of single-vineyard Syrahs. But in 2008 the founders had a falling out, and Pax Mahle left the company. Mahle went on to found Wind Gap Wines, and Donelan changed the name of Pax Wine Cellars to Donelan. Donelan makes Syrah, Viognier, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and a Rhone-style blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma

TYPE

Red Wine, Syrah (Shiraz)

This grape is grown in milder climates and produces a medium-to full-bodied wine. It is also known as Shiraz, but should not be confused with Petit Sirah, which was developed by crossing Syrah with Peloursin.
