The 2012 La Joie...blew me away. A profound effort, with 55% of it coming from Hillsides in Alexander Valley, 31% from Knights Valley and the balance from Chalk Hill, the wine shows great minerality, oodles of cr¬me de cassis fruit, incense, licorice, crushed rock, and a provocative full-throttle mouth feel. A wine of great intensity, purity and equilibrium, this definitely begs for 4-7 years of bottle aging and should drink well for at least 30+ years. October, 2015. -Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
