JEB DUNNUCK 95 POINTS - "The 2021 Casual Encounters checks in as a mix of 47% Mourvèdre, 36% Syrah, 14% Grenache, and 3% Carignan that was aged 24 months in 78% new French oak. It's another rockingly good, exotic wine from winemaker Russell From that has gamey red and black fruits, cured meats, pepper, and sandalwood-like aromas and flavors. With full-bodied richness, a deep, layered mouthfeel, and sweet tannins, it's another absolutely singular effort to enjoy over the coming 7-8 years."

ANTONIO GALLONI'S VINOUS MEDIA 94 POINTS - "Darkly floral and intense, the 2021 Casual Encounters blends black raspberries with cedar shavings, tobacco, and exotic spice. This is elegant in feel, with silken textures and decadently ripe red berry fruits. Cooling acidity maintains a fantastic balance as dark chocolate and balsamic spice firm up the finish, tapering off long and gently tannic. The 2021 is juicy yet expertly balanced."
