McPrice Myers High on the Hog Red Blend 2017  - First Bottle

Reviews

93 Wine Enthusiast -
Part of 13 Top Rated California Wines Under $30 and Editor's Choice: Aromas of fresh boysenberry, baked pastries, caramel and savory smoke lead into a well-integrated palate of fruit, herb and wood flavors that are framed by firm yet polished tannins. It’s fresh with acidity and yet dense, finishing on a touch of pine needle.
91 Vinous -
Deep vivid ruby. Powerful red and blue fruit preserve, candied licorice and exotic spice aromas pick up a smoky nuance with air. Broad, fleshy and seamless in texture, offering palate-coating black raspberry, cherry cola, fruitcake and mocha flavors sharpened by a zesty, peppery nuance. Clings with authority on the long, smoky finish, which leaves behind a sweet violet pastille note. For fans of bold, full-throated but not overbearing red wine, there's serious value here. 20% whole clusters.
90 Wine Spectator -
Bold and zesty, with lively black raspberry, bitter chocolate and licorice flavors that build muscle toward broad-shouldered tannins. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Petite Sirah and Viognier. Drink now through 2028. 2,477 cases made.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
It’s true -- amazing wines like this CAN be found for $18 (well, at First Bottle anyway!). 93 POINTS and totally packed with rich, ripe “GSM” (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre) deliciousness! You won’t find a better bang for the buck anywhere!

Seriously, it’s a bit of a shock how good this is for a jaw-dropping $108 for a 6-pack with free ground shipping. CASE ME! Those who know the “Mac” wines will already be snapping this up, as they are a much-loved fave of savvy wine drinkers all over this country, and widely regarded as one of the can-do-no-wrong masters in the Central Coast (mostly Paso Robles and Santa Barbara). PLEASE DON’T MISS!

About the Producer

McPrice "Mac" Myers became a complete food and wine geek in his early twenties. This led him to frequent sojourns to the Central Coast, where he became a quick study of the burgeoning wine scene. Mac's first vintage was 2002. His enthusiasm for the local vineyards in Paso Robles and Santa Barbara County was matched only by the lure of the Rhone Valley. Mac's own wines received overnight praise from the wine press-at-large. With a keen eye on the future of California vineyards and a respectful nod to the Old World, Mac continues to impress as one of the most progressive and even-handed winemakers on the Central Coast.
