Wine Advocate Review
Rated 93
The 2021 Christo is a blend of 68% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 8% Petite Sirah and 4% Viognier. The nose features fresh blackcurrant and blueberry aromas with tones of cast iron, violet, sagebrush and conifer. The full-bodied palate is chalky and refreshing with restrained, mineral-driven fruit and a long, perfumed finish. Give it 2-3 years in bottle or a couple hours in a decanter. Drink 2025-2035.
Wine Tasting Notes
The Marietta Christo Estate Grown Red Blend exudes a rich and bold character, showcasing hints of licorice, slate, and molasses. Delicate aromas of honey and lavender add a touch of brightness, complemented by warm spice and pepper for added depth. The palate is velvety and full-bodied, with a subtle chalky undertone and well-structured tannins. Vibrant acidity brings out juicy blackberry flavors, striking a harmonious balance between lively energy and profocomplexity.
