95+Point by Jeb Dunnuck.
The 2018 Wall Road Vineyard is a more structured wine which is normal for wines from the Mount Veeder AVA, a cooler, mountainous terroir. Giving up lots of red and black fruits intermixed with notes of scrub brush, tobacco, crushed rock, and freshly sharpened lead pencils, this beauty hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, some chalky tannins, terrific depth of fruit, and the concentration, structure and balance to improve over the coming 4-5 years and keep for two decades.
Winemaker Jeff Ames
Jeff began working with Thomas Brown in 2001 for projects including Schrader, Maybach, Outpost and TOR. As a young winemaker from Memphis, he had no idea just how fortunate he was to land where he did. As either lead or assistant winemaker, Jeff has his fingerprints on twenty 100-Point, perfect wines—quite an accomplishment for his short time in the valley. At Boich Family Cellar, Jeff has delivered multiple 98-point and 99-point wines, waiting patiently for his first perfect score. And it will likely be Perennius.
