"I think the finest vintage to date, the 2015 The Maven is all Grenache (there’s a small amount of fruit from James Berry Vineyard) and offers a sensational perfume of flowers, white pepper, cedary spice, and a big core of blueberry and cherry fruit. Seamless, elegant, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully balanced, it’s enjoyable today but will have two decades of overall longevity. Hats off to winemaker Scott Hawley for this awesome wine!"
