It is planted with some of the oldest Syrah and Grenache in California. This ancient, dry farmed mixed block next to the original Gibson Homestead has been producing grapes for over a hundred years. As a result of the vine age and miniscule yield, this wine is dark and intense. A heady mix of mulberry and lavender dominate the nose, with an edge of cinnamon stick. Broad, mouth-coating tannins are tethered to a core of smooth, sleek, powerful texture that is balanced by focused acid. Delicious with hearty fare now, and built to age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e95Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003e\nDeep ruby-purple, the 2019 Gibson Block Syrah has a core of cassis and soaring violet perfume with accents of coffee beans, dark chocolate, aniseed and mint. The full-bodied palate is powerful and concentrated with broody, iron-laced fruits, pleasantly chewy tannins and bright freshness elevating floral perfume on the finish.\u003cbr\u003e\n95James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSome lovely rounded aromas of cut plums, black tea, well-ripened red cherries and sage. Medium-to full-bodied with tight tannins. Lovely, subtle concentration and intensity here. Generous without being overblown. Tar and bark. Driven with structure and length. A lovely example of what Northern California syrah is capable of. Best after 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marietta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46056648343776,"sku":"122863","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/marietta-gibson-block-estate-grown-syrah_1.jpg?v=1721419141","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/marietta-gibson-block-estate-grown-syrah-2019-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
