About the wine
Force Majeure was created in 2004 from a partnership between winemaker and vineyard manager Ryan Johnson and owners Paul and Susan MC Bride, as well as some of the area's most up-and-coming oenologists. Ben Smith, Ross Mickel, Mark McNeilly, Carolyn Lakewold and Chris Gorman had the opportunity to create their own cuvées according to their imagination, which are numbered with the Roman numerals from I-VII. The idea was to produce wines based on different French models and to give them a unique character through the different handwritings of the individual winemakers.
Vinous: 96/100, Jeb Dunnuck: 95/100
Tasting note
Intense ruby red. Aromas of red and blue fruits, violets, mocha, chocolate and herbs. Powerful body with ripe tannins, beautiful fruit and great dimensions with a presence of mineral substance.
Culinary recommendation
Flaschenpöstler-Tipp: Syrah Parabellum passt ideal zu geröstetem Gemüse, Barbecue und Wild.
Vinification
After manual harvesting, the selected grapes are left to a cool maceration period. The wine is then fermented in a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank. After gentle pressing, the wine ages for 18 months in partly new and partly used French oak barrels. The wine is vinified according to the Rhône model and bottled unembellished as well as unfiltered.
