2008 Soulmate - Red Rhone Blend

Destiny. Fate. A collaboration of inevitability. For the crossing of their paths beckons a prophesy that is everlasting. Mate for life, mate forever.

Accolades

The 2007 vintage was reviewed by Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 184 (Aug 2009): RATING - 88
"...the 2007 Soulmate’s dark ruby/plum color is followed by a medium to full-bodied, structured wine revealing more tannin and delineation than its siblings. It should be even better in a year or so."

Our most recent release of the 2008 vintage is a magical blend of four varietals: 35% Syrah, 25% Petite Sirah, 25% Tempranillo and 15% Grenache, and only from the finest of our barrels.

Grey Wolf has striven to produce a Rhone blend that exemplifies the unique terroir of Paso Robles. This wine bestows a provincial sense of briary tones married with a toasty finish. Cuisine of game or fowl are complemented graciously by this wine. Firm oak program predicates superior aging, yet has immediate drink-ability. This one's for the lovers. Hazelnut nose and heavy fruit mouth feel with spicy finishing characteristics.
