Bid on this magnum of 2020 Saxum "Bone Rock - James Berry Vineyard" Paso Robles Rhône Blend (1.5L) (98DC, 95RP, 95WS). Decanter: "Iodine and violets lend a lifted, airy perfume to this intensely concentrated yet superbly balanced, almost laser-etched wine. It's powerful and unctuous certainly, but its black cherry and berry flavours are pristine, coating the palate in waves of satin and dustings of cocoa powder, chalk and ore. A complex yet hedonistic wine sourced from vines planted more than 30 years ago (into rock using a jackhammer) and aged for 33 months, predominantly in French barriques. (AI)" (02/2024)

Included in this lot · 1 bottle

Provenance: Purchased directly from the winery and stored in the temperature controlled wine cellar of a Los Angeles based collector and repeat consignor with K&L Auctions.

The 2020 Bone Rock is a beautiful wine made all the more impressive as the result of a challenging harvest. It opens with a lush, dark-fruited nose accented by savory, herbal and meaty touches, although with slightly less clarity and overall intensity than found in more forgiving vintages. The palate is dramatic, opulent and lavish, showcasing punchy ripeness harnessed with admirable delineation and focus. The finish is explosive, chock-full of potent, saturating dark fruits, umami-laden richness and tight, fine, precise tannins. (ML)
