"A year made for mold" was how Mark Herold described 2011."Ripeness depended on how much fruit you left on the vines as well as how you managed the canopies to deal with humidity and trapped moisture."Herold is clearly enamored of the 2012 vintage, which he said followed "two underripe years."But his 2011s, including the cabernets he crafts for his several clients, have turned out well, and I suspect that many Europhiles will prefer them to some of Herold's past chocolatey blockbusters from superripe fruit.His own 2011 blends from Rhone varieties and tempranillo are also successful, as most of this fruit ripened earlier than the cabernet.

Mark Herold makes a wide range of delicious wines, but his Rhone and Spanish-varietal wines in particular also deliver incredible value.
