Fantastic new discovery! Mount Peak's Gravity Red is a delicious Red Blend we highy recommend.
              
93 Points Wine Enthusiast: "Here is a testament to good-quality, California-appellated wines. This red blend opens with immediate aromas of fresh violets, plump black cherry, black currant, chocolate, tarragon, fennel and toasted wood. The palate mirrors those aromatics, but they jump with vivacity from the solid dose of acidity and generous alcohol. Firm tannic texture adds structural integrity, leading toward a fairly lengthy finish."

91 Points Wine Spectator: "Ripe and gutsy, with a dense core of tannins framed by blackberry and currant flavors. Reveals espresso, cracked pepper and grilled anise accents that finish with tannic grip. Hands off for now. Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Syrah, Sangiovese, Viognier, Grenache and Malbec. Best from 2025 through 2031."

The story of Mount Peak Winery begins more than a century ago at the celebrated Monte Rosso Vineyard and culminates with the recent revival of the brand by Gallo. A vestige of one of California's great "ghost" wineries, the wines are a tribute to the extraordinary facility that once stood there. Originally built in 1886, Mount Peak was a marvel of innovation with its three-story, gravity-flow system built from rock directly sourced from the dry-farmed Monte Rosso vineyard. While it ultimately emerged as one of California's top producers, it was closed during Prohibition and left abandoned to the elements, laying silent for decades. Over 130 years later, Gallo has revived the site and the vineyard, perched at nearly 1,300 feet along the spine of the Mayacamas Mountains, straddling the Napa and Sonoma Valleys. The steep hillsides are set against a dramatic backdrop and the new Mount Peak label will focus on Cabernet, Zinfandel, and a red blend from the original Monte Rosso fruit. The Gravity is made from plots within the vineyard as well as fruit sourced from Frei Ranch in Dry Creek Valley and Snows Lake in Lake County. It's 33% Petite Syrah, 29% Cab, 21% Zin, 10% Syrah, 5% Grenache, and 2% Barbera.
