"A blend of 37% Grenache, 28% Syrah, 26% Mourvedre, and 9% Cinsault, the 2006 The Ditch Digger reminds me of an old-styled Fonsalette from the southern Rhone. Elegant aromas of sweet berry, raspberry, and cherry fruit along with licorice, pepper, and Provencal herbs emerge from this fresh, pure, zesty, lively, medium-bodied red. It would have scored an even higher rating if the finish had been slightly longer. This beauty is best consumed over the next 2-3 years."
"Weaves together an elegant mix of savory wild berry, herb, pepper and mineral. Full-bodied and well-balanced, ending with a crisp, minerally edge. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault. Drink now through 2014. 850 cases made." -90 Points - Wine Spectator Sustainable Farming
