2022 Law Estate Wines Audacious | Paso Robles California 750ml

Aged 22 months in a blend of barrels, puncheons and Foudre, providing both elegance and edge. On the nose, layers of red fruit intertwine with floral notes of dried hibiscus and a savory herbaceous streak from the Cabernet. Grenache leads on the palate with an explosion of red fruit, wrapped in fine-grained Cabernet tannins that give structure and lift. Carignan contributes vivid freshness and citrus-driven tension, while Syrah deepens the experience with dark spice, earthy minerality, and an iron-core-like structure. The oak is deftly integrated, lending notes of clove, cardamom, and a gentle touch of vanilla, never overshadowing the fruit. A crushed-river-stone minerality runs through the mid-palate, grounding the wine with a sense of place. Exuding balance, vibrant aromatics, sculpted texture, and seamless fruit interplay harmoniously intertwined. Audacious is as cerebral as it is delicious, offering a reason to linger and return to the glass, again and again. | Law Estates

Tasting like a top Chateauneuf-du-Pape, the 2022 Audacious reveals red and black fruits, peppery spice, herbes de Provence, and loamy earth...it's medium to full-bodied, with a pure, layered, seamless mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a gorgeous finish... | 98 points Jeb Dunnuck
