Critics Scores
Wine Spectator
The 2015 Grenache Le Chemin vers l'Hérésie is a total turn-on. Rich, ripe and voluptuous, but with considerable aromatic nuance from the 44 whole clusters, the 2015 has it all. Time in the glass brings out floral and red-toned Grenache varietal notes, and the flavors are remarkably vivid and intense today. Even so, readers will have to cellar this for at least a few years. All the elements are in place for the 2015 to develop into a spectacular wine. I can't wait to see how it ages. The 2015 is 75 Grenache, 13 Mourvèdre, 8 Touriga Nacional and 4 Petite Sirah, done with 44 whole clusters (for the Grenache and Mourvèdre).

I loved the 2015 Grenache le Chemin Vers l’Heresie from barrel, and it certainly doesn’t disappoint from bottle. The 2015 checks in as a blend of 75 Grenache, 13 Mourvèdre, 8 Touriga Nacional and the rest Petite Sirah, fermented with 44 whole clusters (all from the Grenache and Mourvèdre) and aged close to two years in mostly used barrel. It sports a ruby/purple-tinged color to go with gorgeous notes of black cherries, framboise, black olives, fennel seed, and peppery herbs. Deep, concentrated, yet also voluptuous and seamless, it’s another tour de force from this estate which consistently produces one of the greatest Grenaches in the world. Drink it anytime over the coming 15+ years.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2015 Grenache Le Chemin Vers L'Heresie is a blend of 75 Grenache, 13 Mourvèdre, 8 Touriga Nacional and 4 Petite Sirah, coming 35 from The Third Twin (Estate) Vineyard, 9 from Bien Nacido Vineyard, 28 from the Cumulus (Estate) Vineyard, 26 from the Eleven Confessions (Estate) Vineyard and 2 from Molly Aida (Estate) Vineyard. It was produced using 44 whole cluster and aged for around 22 months in French oak, 11 new (bottled August 21, 2017). It has a deep garnet-purple color and fragrant nose of violets, kirsch, blueberry compote and dark chocolate with hints of lavender, smoky bacon, Provence herbs and menthol. Full-bodied, rich, concentrated and bold, the wines bursts with energy, superbly framed by velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with lingering sautéed herbs and black pepper notions. 1,204 cases of 750 milliliter bottles and 600 magnum bottles were made.
