Steve Edmunds. Is there a Mount Rushmore of CA wine? If so, put him on it.

  • 2000 Edmunds St. John Los Robles Viejos Rozet Vineyard - USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles (3/29/2019)
    Can’t believe it’s been 8 years since my last bottle. This still shows the iron, meat, and herbal-anise notes. The fruit seems more red, sweeter and fuller now. Seems to be showing more grenache now, with a pepper finish amidst the sweet fruit. It has moments of brilliance before it begins to fade a bit and become somewhat one-dimensional. Been a good ride, and this is still a good glass, but drink up.

The 2000 LRV has never been the thoroughbred that is the 2001.

I agree, I like both but the 2001 was my clear favorite of the two. I might have one bottle left.
