2010 Sine Qua Non "Stockholm Syndrome" Sta. Rita Hills Grenache The 2013 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er CruThe 2010 Grenache Stockholm Syndrome has an explosive energy to it that takes hold of the senses and never lets up. A distinctly dark side of Grenache comes through in an intense, opulent, full throttle wine endowed with superb intensity and tons of fruit. Hints of over ripeness appear, especially on the finish, but that isn't enough to detract from the pure pleasure the 2010 delivers. (AG)
