Cayuse, Walla Walla Valley, En Chamberlin Vineyard, Impulsivo Tempranillo 2010
97 points Wine Advocate The 2010 Impulsivo showed similar to my review in 2013, with lots of cedar, spice-box, dried rose petal and sweet cassis and blackberry fruit. Full-bodied, ripe and concentrated, it never seems over the top, has building tannin and a fresh, focused feel that carries through the finish. It’s a brilliantly balanced 2010 that will have 20-25 years of overall longevity. (JD)(6/2015) 95 points James Suckling Rounded aromas of cherries, plums, blackcurrants, nutmeg and violets. Medium-to full-bodied with supple tannins. Rich black fruit turns savory with notes of tobacco and espresso as the palate evolves. Roasted rosemary and thyme, too. Great complexity and balance. A hint of sea salt at the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (2/2022)
