Almost Autumn Sale

With the cool evening weather we experienced earlier in the week we've embraced the idea of picking ripe apples in lush fruit orchards, planting mumms in deep shades of saffron and marigold in our autumn garden, and heading out to the field to select pumpkins to adorn our front steps.

We're definitely ready to celebrate the arrival of autumn and we have some perfectly matched wines we're featuring this month to show our excitement.

Today we have a beauty.

Capcanes Mas Donis Barrica Garnacha/Syrah Old Vines 2010

"Produced from 85% Garnacha (70-year-old vines) and 15% Syrah (30-year-old vines) aged nine months in new and older American and French oak, it is another under-the-radar wine that dramatically over-delivers.

A custom cuvee made for Eric Solomon, it exhibits notes of rose petals, raspberry jam, crushed rocks, spring flowers and kirsch.

Stunningly rich and medium to full-bodied, with wonderful vibrancy, precision and minerality, this beauty could easily pass for a grand cru Burgundy – it's that complex and interesting. I am blown away by what's in the bottle, but you be the judge. It should drink well for 5-6 years.

When I was covering all the Spanish wines, this was one of my great value picks in the early days, and I am thrilled to see there are now 8,000 cases of this "baby Priorat" from nearby Montsant available in the American market." --- Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
