Score 94-95/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jul 2022

Dark, glistening purple. Powerful kirsch, dark berry, incense, lavender and exotic spice aromas show sharp delineation and pick up a smoky mineral note as the wine opens up. Sweet and seamless in texture, offering deeply concentrated black raspberry, cherry preserve, five-spice powder and violet pastille flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Deftly melds richness and finesse and finishes extremely long and spicy, with resonating florality and pliant tannins that add shape and discreet grip.

Robert Parker, Mar 2022

The 2020 Panoplie is a barrel sample of 59% Mourvèdre, 28% Syrah and 13% Grenache. It has a medium garnet color and muddled red and black fruits with notes of tar, chargrill, woodsmoke, earth and tea leaves. The palate is very juicy, with a clay-like texture, earth-laced fruits and a slightly dilute finish. (EB)
