The Story

Grown on a vineyard that Tensley himself helped plant in 1994 as a $7-per-hour newcomer to the wine world—one that Robert Parker once called “an emerging Grand Cru”—this next-level bottling displays Tensley’s Syrah mastery. Comprising a rare clone of Syrah co-fermented with Marsanne, Hermitage-style, Vinous called it “a wild, crazy wine…super-expressive, explosive…[and] incredibly distinctive” in their 95-point rave.

Wine Access Tasting Note

Powerful and expressive, with a deep, dark ruby-magenta hue. The aromas are led by a bounty of sun-kissed blackberry, cherry, and plum, dusted with freshly cracked black pepper overlaying a bed of lilacs. The mouthfeel carries a savory, rich, mouthwatering concentration, which is laced with great acidity and chewy tannins, resulting in a long-lasting finish. Drink now–2030.

Critic Reviews

Vinous

The 2021 Syrah Rodney’s Vineyard is a wild, crazy wine. Joey Tensley co-ferments 10% Marsanne with the Syrah in this super-expressive, explosive Syrah. Bright, perfumed and yet also deep, the Rodney’s is incredibly distinctive. Dark blue/purplish fruit, spice, leather, incense and dried flowers all meld together effortlessly. Give this a year or two to soften.

Wine Advocate

The 2021 P2KV Syrah Rodney's Vineyard comes from vines planted between 1994-1997 and contains 10% Marsanne. Medium ruby-purple, a touch of tarriness gives way to blueberries, blackberries, salami, licorice and savory spices. The palate is light-bodied, chalky and fresh with understated, spicy flavors and a lifted, refreshing finish. Very drinkable!
