Review Date: 04/2018Deep ruby-colored, with an opaque core, the 2015 Tempranillo El Jefe Stoneridge Vineyard is 100% varietal. Charles and Brennon commented that they do a lot of cluster shaping with Tempranillo to get everything evenly ripe at the same time. Destemmed and aged in 40% new barrique, it reveals a terrific bouquet of black cherries, toasted spice, dried Provençal herbs, and hints of graphite.

The 2015 El Jefe Tempranillo Stoneridge Vineyard is generous and fruit-forward, leading with notes of ripe cherries, strawberry preserve and subtle hints of candied peel. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and succulent, with juicy fruit overlaying fine-grained but savory, chewy varietal tannins. (WK)

Full dark red. Aromas of musky plum, dark cherry, mocha and herbs. Wonderful silky on entry, then quite fresh in the middle palate, with the fine-grained raspberry and tobacco flavors displaying lovely inner-mouth lift and energy to buffer the wine's sweetness. Finishes with suave, building, ultimately firm tannins and excellent length. (ST)
