I was excited to hear that Prophetess was one of the top wines Robert Parker has ever tasted, and I have to wholeheartedly agree! Curt Schalchlin has been crafting some of the most amazing, well-priced, widely-praised Rhone blends for over a decade. His wines have made him (and me) many friends. The Prophetess bottling, Curt’ smallest bottling (215 cases only), sells out within weeks of its release! So don’t procrastinate!

A multi-vintage blend that’s from 2018 & 2019, XVIII/XIX Prophetess is a blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre, fermented with a touch of stems (only from the Syrah) and aged in 40% new barrels. It’s deep ruby/purple/opaque color is followed by killer notes of black raspberries, cassis, smoke meats and dried flowers. Probably the finest wine I’ve tasted from Kurt, it has full-bodied richness, an elegant, silky, seamless personality and no hard edges. It’s already impossible to resist.
Winemaker Notes: “You sit among the night violets near a freshly fallen tree and stare up at the midnight sky, waiting. Scents of huckleberry, cinnamon plum and dusty stones hang in the air. The din of chattering campers in the distance diminishes as you cradle a mug of mocha to stay warm. You hear a pinecone fall and then nothing. Calmness spreads now throughout the valley allowing you to see the meaning which looms in the patterns of the stars.
