"The brilliant 2004 Sticks and Stones is a terrific example of what can be accomplished in this area. It boasts killer intensity as well as superb elegance, a striking minerality, and gorgeous black raspberry, framboise, cassis, kirsch, and blackberry notes. A blend of 57% Grenache, 23% Syrah, and 20% Mourvedre aged in primarily French oak, it is a complex, full-bodied, nuanced red to consume over the next decade. "
