“How are the wines? Damn good. And so is the concept of how the wines are offered. Stratus believes in the blend. The flagship wines are called Stratus Red and Stratus White. No grape varieties are listed – you get what the winemaker crafts. As J-L stated, ‘I start with a big palate, as much diversity as possible, and in the end you get my expression.’ What doesn’t get used in the final blend is offered as separate grape varieties, or it goes into the second tiered Stratus wine called Wildass.”

—Billy’s Best Bottles, Summer 2005
