2018 Downstream Box Set
4cs (3*75cl + 1*150cl OWC)
*Made by Justin Smith of Saxum and Philippe Cambie of Clos St Jean*
*Has already gained cult collectable status in the USA*
*Only 600 cases made*

Downstream. A relatively new project involving Justin Smith of the brilliant Saxum and Philippe Cambie of Clos St Jean in Châteauneuf du Pape in the up-and-coming AVA of Paso Robles, this fascinating blend is a triumph in 2018.

Smith and Cambie have been free to experiment and push the boundaries here to get the very most out of their excellent fruit, principally old vine Zinfandel from the superb Dust vineyard. With a splash of Grenache and Mourvèdre in the cuvee, this "This will stand toe to toe with any top Châteauneuf du Pape out there” for Jeb Dunnuck and merits a massive 98-point score.

98 points Jeb Dunnuck
Normally a Zinfandel-dominated blend with a splash of Grenache and Mourvèdre, the 2018 Downstream comes from a collaboration between two great winemakers, Justin Smith in Paso Robles and Philippe Cambie in the Southern Rhône. I've loved every vintage of this cuvée, and the 2018 is no exception, showing a more Rhône-like style in its darker berry fruits, bouquet garni, pepper, and flowery incense aromas and flavors. Where previous vintages were incredibly expressive and almost overflowing with Zinfandel character, the 2018 is more masculine and structured and benefits from plenty of air. With full-bodied richness, a polished, elegant texture, ample tannins and structure, and a blockbuster of a finish, give bottles another year or two and enjoy over the following decade or more. This will stand toe to toe with any top Châteauneuf du Pape out there. (2020) www.jebdunnuck.com Drink 2021-2033

98 points Vinous (Josh Raynolds)
Opaque magenta. Expansive, spice- and mineral-accented cherry and dark berry liqueur, fruitcake, licorice and woodsmoke aromas are complemented by suggestions of cola and mocha. Vibrant, sharply focused red and blue fruit, candied lavender and exotic spice flavors show superb definition and turn deeper and sweeter as the wine opens up. Polished, finely woven tannins come in slowly on a wonderfully persistent and incisive finish that echoes the blue fruit, floral and spice notes. (2021) www.vinous.com
