For sure Reynvaan/Result of a Crush is top five wineries in the US. No one makes wines under $35 Result of a Crush and wines in the upper $70s this consistently. Had to pop open the 2014 Stonessence on my birthday and it is a very elegant offering but attempts to be a Rhone like wine which it does a nice job accomplishing this feat. Here is my note:
2014 Reynvaan Family Vineyards Syrah Stonessence – USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Walla Walla Valley (4/25/2025) Day 1: Very elegant offering with white pepper, minerals, raspberries, dust, earth, tar and violets. Medium finish. Solid. 93 points Day 2: Expect anything less that it is better on day 2. No. White pepper, raspberries, sour cherry, violets, crushed rocks, dust, tar, earth and mild funk. A super long finish and elegance wins here. Many think these are powerhouses and exact opposite. 95 points (95 points) |
