GSM Reserve – 2012; Solaro Estate Winery; Dripping Springs, Texas

Who doesn’t like a good GSM to soothe the day?  This blend of 49% Grenache, 36% Syrah, and 15% Malbec has held up quite well for the past decade.  It is more translucent in color thru the aging process, but the fruit notes seem to be holding up just fine.  You will sense mostly raspberry and spice from the first pour followed by a touch of earthiness.  It has mellowed out, so that smooth finish is quite enjoyable.  Pair with a wood fired pizza to bring a little joy to your heart. Nice bottle if you still have any in your cellar, we recommend enjoying now. Cheers!
