Wine Critic Reviews
The 2010 Grand Mayne has a chiseled bouquet with pure blackberry and raspberry fruit that immediately seduce. The palate is medium-bodied with bold tannins, perhaps just starting to becoming a little more pliant. It is certainly very dense with ample blackberry and boysenberry fruit mixed with brown spices and dark chocolate towards the finish. Though, I generally prefer this vintage over the preceding one, I discern more freshness on the 2009 at the moment. Tasted at the Grand Mayne vertical at the property.

I had this wine four different times, rating it between 88 and 92, so some bottle variation (or was it my palate?) seems at play. The wine is certainly deep and medium to full-bodied, but I don’t think it equals their brilliant effort in 1998 or even some of their more recent vintages. Nevertheless, there is a lot here to like, especially in the bottles that showed so well. Plenty of floral-infused blueberry fruit intermixed with some incense, lead pencil shavings and spice are present in this richly fruity, full, fleshy wine, which should drink well for up to 12-15 years.
