Mac's Bordeaux-Rhone blend! This wine was formerly called "Fait Accompli", meaning "a thing that has already happened or been decided before those affected hear about it, leaving them with no option but to accept it." Unfortunately, since somebody in our industry is a bellyacher, he had to change it, and now calls it "F.A." for short.
Paso Robles is known for being an amazing climate for growing Rhones and Cabernet Sauvignon, and this is a blend from the McPrice Myers Estate Vineyard, Paper Street, and Armory. The Cab, Syrah, and Petit Verdot coming off of these vineyards are too good to do anything other than its own bottling, which is why it is a Fait Accompli. The final blend is 52% Syrah, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Petite Verdot. Sugar-dusted black currants, bing cherry, raspberry puree, roasted plums, lilac, birch beer, sweet olive, black pepper crusted beef carpaccio, eucalyptus pollen, toffee, Mexican hot chocolate, espresso beans. Palate approaches soft and supple, but firms with fine-grained tannins, and finishes juicy, with a taught mineral coil.
