"Gravity Red Blend is named for a remote, hard-to-reach block on Mount Peak's historic Monte Rosso Vineyard, where Petite Sirah vines cling to a steep slope on the edge of a canyon. The wine opens with aromas of baked blueberry, freshly brewed coffee and dried apricot. The concentrated and multifaceted palate adds notes of acai berry, dark plum, cocoa powder and underpinnings of tar and cracked pepper. Lengthy and well-structured, supported by fine, but firm, tannins." —winemaker

"A very California blend of 32% petite sirah, 29% zinfandel, 27% syrah, 7% grenache and 5% viognier. It’s a big but sleek wine reminiscent of a Rhone, packed with dark fruit and peppery spices and lifted by good, fresh acidity and medium tannins. Full-bodied. Drink or hold." —James Suckling
"This wine is lush, with aromas of boysenberry, blueberry, spice, violet, toasted vanilla and dried herbs on the nose. The flavors on the palate are brambled blackberry, yellow plum and spearmint, interwoven with citrus zest, allspice, vanilla cream, mineral and a long finish. Decant for 30 minutes and pair with sweet and sour pork." —Wine Enthusiast
"The 2021 Gravity Red Blend is composed of 32% Petite Sirah, 29% Zinfandel, 27% Syrah, 7% Grenache and 5% Viognier, and the wine was matured for 19 months in 29% new French oak. It’s scented of Morello cherries, lilac, charcuterie and pepper with spicy undertones. The full-bodied palate is plush and velvety with bright acidity to balance its ripe flavors, and it has a long, gently allspice-laced finish. 3,615 cases produced." —Wine Advocate
