The 2016 Rediviva of The Stones is a blend of 81% Syrah, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Mourvèdre. Coming from the Rockgarden Estate, the wine shows the heart of Syrah on the nose with aromas of blackberry, black raspberry and black peppercorn spice. The Cabernet expression is fully exposed on the palate along with a soft note of red bell pepper and mild leathery earthiness providing a lift, giving the wine remarkable complexity across the mid-palate. The wine gains in complexity, depth and breadth as it sits in the mouth, showcasing expertise in blending. It ends with a long, thoughtful finish and continues to evolve in the mouth long after the wine has left the palate. Only 257 were produced of this deliciously seductive wine. Stunning.
