Saxum is small production red blend made from Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvédre grown in the Templeton Gap in Paso Robles. The vines are planted in calcareous soils on steep hillsides, creating a wine that is subdued yet powerful. A keeper!

Winemaker's Notes:

Yes, that's right, there is a decent dose of Petite Sirah in the latest Stones! The PS adds some sinister elements, along with a slight herbal edge to the blend. I really enjoy what this variety brings to the table. The blend is fairly typical for a Broken Stones, with big juicy black fruit being front and center, along with plenty of polish and that great stony minerality that our rocky soils bring forth. Please lay this wine down for 6 months or a year. It will continue to improve for many years. 60% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre, 12% Petite Sirah, 8% Grenache
