(92-95 points) Getting more Syrah in 2010, with the blend checking in at 75% Syrah, and the rest an assortment of varieties, the 2010 Jonata Winery Todos is bright and floral, with classic Syrah aromas of pepper, violets, herbs, and chocolate on the nose. It’s more rich and concentrated on the palate than The Pairing, and shows clean, juicy acidity to go with a lively, energetic texture, solid mid-palate depth, and ripe tannin on the finish. Overall, very pretty and drinkable, with slightly more lift and elegance than the ’09, however, these have tendency to firm up and gain weight in bottle, so we’ll see how this develops. Certainly outstanding and in line with past vintages.

Looking at the entry level effort, and almost making me wonder why you would pony up the money for the La Sangre when you can get this level of quality at less than half the price, the 2010 Todos, which is over 75% Syrah, offers up knockout aromas and flavors, full-bodied richness and a seamless, layered profile that is hard to resist. Blackberry liqueur, caramelized beef, chocolate and flowers are just some of the nuances here and this pure, polished 2010 can be enjoyed now or cellared for a decade. Drink now-2020.
