Mission Codename Paso's Finest

When you run out of today’s Onx Wines 2012 Reckoning Red, you’ll weep. Be sure to buy enough to last you. This wine is drinking beautifully now and bottles that are well cared for should last you another decade.

Here’s what the big time critics have to say about this wine:

“This mashup of 62% Syrah, 16% Petite Sirah, 8% Tempranillo, 7% Grenache, 5% Zinfandel and 2% Malbec delivers aromas of black cherry and Chinese five spice as well as mint and black earth. The palate picks up blackberry-laced iced tea with sprigs of mint and pinches of cardamom, alongside spicy gingerbread cake.” - 93 points - Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

“The inky-colored 2012 Reckoning is the star of the lineup. Made from a kitchen sink-like blend of 62% Syrah, 16% Petite Sirah, 8% Tempranillo, 7% Grenache and the balance Zinfandel and Malbec, this beauty dishes up loads of blueberry, blackberry, spring flowers, licorice and serious minerality to go with a medium to full-bodied, fresh and elegant feel on the palate. The vintage’s purity of fruit is front and center here, and this has a great mix of richness and freshness. It will drink well for 7-8 years. A new estate for me, these eclectic blends come from the ONX Wines estate vineyard that’s located on the west side of Paso Robles. They’re all well-made and have up front, textured profiles that score high on drinkability.” - 92 points - Robert Parker - Wine Advocate

What do we say? Don’t miss out on this bold, juicy, flavor-packed, magical, delicious, powerhouse wonder of a wine. Get yourself some - before Agent Red buys it all!
