Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2011 Sanguis "Mule" Santa Barbara County Red Blend (93VN, 92RP). Vinous: "Glass-staining ruby. Powerful, brooding dark fruit compote aromas slowly open and gain spiciness with air, taking on exotic incense, potpourri and smoked meat nuances. Dense blackcurrant and blueberry flavors are given lift and cut by smoky minerals, showing a suave, floral pastille nuance on the back half. Brawny and concentrated for sure, but there's energy here as well. Closes broad and chewy, with repeating smokiness and dusty tannins that contribute shape and grip. (JR)" (12/2014)

Included in this lot · 3 bottles

Provenance: Purchased from reputable sources on release and stored in a professional storage facility by a NJ-based collector. Delivered to K&L via refrigerated transit.

Stepping up in overall weight and richness, the 2011 Mule (72% Syrah, 21% Grenache, 3% Cabernet Franc and the rest Roussanne) is fresh and bright on the nose with piercing floral, new leather, cedar, spice and underbrush qualities supported by a vibrant core of blackberry and cherry fruit. Medium to full-bodied, with laser-like focus on the palate to go with building richness, it’s a joy to drink and should age nicely for over a decade. (JD)
