Andrew Will Two Blondes Blend 2020
96 pts Wine Advocate
The 2020 Two Blondes Vineyard is a blend of Merlot with 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Cabernet Franc and 11% Malbec. The nose is dark-fruited with a fresh, ripe mineral essence and notions of rose, dusty cherries and hints of black plums. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is firm, balanced and fresh, with fantastic action across the mid-palate, offering focus and finesse with a brilliant floral and mineral tension. The wine concludes with a juicy and long finish and will be delightfully fresh and food-friendly once released.

Hints of black tea give way to dried flowers, incense, wild blueberries and plum sauce as the 2020 Two Blondes evolves in the glass. It washes across the palate with velvety textures supported by brisk acidity, displaying mineral-inflected black fruits further elevated by a tinge of sour citrus. The 2020 tapers off with a pleasantly chewy sensation, leaving dusty tannins and a tinge of tart blackberry that lingers. - By Eric Guido on October 2024
