Saxum Vineyards 2021 G2 Vineyard Red Wine 750ml A Bold, Limited-Edition Paso Robles Icon
The Saxum Vineyards 2021 G2 Vineyard release is one of the most sought-after expressions from Paso Robles’ celebrated Willow Creek District. Known for producing wines of extraordinary depth and purity, the G2 Vineyard bottling showcases Justin Smith’s masterful Rhône-style blending, delivering a 750ml red wine that is both powerfully structured and gracefully refined.
Crafted in extremely small quantities, this vintage is a must-have for collectors, enthusiasts of high-end California wine, and anyone seeking a rare, luxury-level bottle with long-term cellaring potential.
Why the 2021 G2 Vineyard Stands Out
• Elite Vineyard Source: G2 is one of the most coveted sites in Willow Creek, producing fruit with exceptional concentration, natural acidity, and mineral-driven complexity.
• Renowned Rhône-Style Winemaking: Saxum’s signature blend (often Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre depending on the vintage) brings layered richness with impeccable balance.
• Extremely Limited Production: Allocated and hard to find each bottle offers genuine collectible value.
• Consistent Critical Acclaim: Saxum’s G2 Vineyard bottlings are regularly recognized among the top wines of Paso Robles.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Explosive notes of blackberry, blueberry compote, black cherry, violets, fresh sage, and crushed stone.
Palate: Dense and mouthcoating, offering vibrant dark fruit, savory spice, graphite, and hints of cocoa and wild herbs.
Texture: Silky yet powerful tannins with superb balance and a refined, lifted finish.
Finish: Long, complex, and evolving showing purity and energy from start to finish.
