The 2012 Ingenuity, which was schedule to be bottled at the end June, offers serious richness and depth in its full-bodied, concentrated, savory and rounded profile. Exhibiting classic black fruits, chocolate and smoked earth, as well as a stacked mid-palate and ample structure, it’s a classic Syrah blend from Paso that does everything right. Enjoy it over the coming 7-8 years. – August 2014 (Jeb Dunnuck)

Delivers a graceful, harmonious mix of dark berry, cedar, raspberry and licorice flavors, supple in texture and lingering on the finish, gaining depth and nuance. Drink now through 2022. – April 2014 (James Laube)

The 2011 Ingenuity is 55% Syrah, 17% Grenache, 15% Mourvedre and the balance Petite Sirah. Aged in barrels and puncheons, it offers a gorgeous, seamless, layered and full-bodied style to go with notes of black raspberry, chocolate, spice-box and hints of pepper. I love the overall purity here, and it’s incredibly silky and polished on the palate, with fine tannin. Enjoy this beauty over the coming 7-8 years. – August 2014 (Jeb Dunnuck)

Big, broad, rich and chewy, with dense, extracted dark berry, black licorice, anise and cedar notes. Rambunctious now, but will have tamer days ahead. Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache and Petite Sirah. Best from 2014 through 2024. – November 30, 2013 (James Laube)

The 2010 Ingenuity is a knockout effort that checks in as a mix of 62% Syrah, 14% Mourvedre, 12% Grenache and 12% Petite Sirah that was aged in 61% new French oak. Gorgeous all around, with a lively, yet decadent bouquet of grilled beef, black fruits, licorice, mineral, violets and earth, it flows onto the palate with a full-bodied, rich texture, notable freshness and a clean, energetic finish. Already delicious and approachable, it nevertheless has the concentration, acidity and tannin to evolve gracefully through 2020. – August 2013 (Jeb Dunnuck)
