Blackberry cobbler merges with flavors of black plum and licorice followed by an inky, rich finish in this California blend of Syrah, Merlot, Malbec, and Zinfandel.

Fragrance upon opening really peaked my interest. First tastes- brilliant blackberry and full bodied fruits. Great aroma continues. Smells sweet but the finish is anything but. Beautiful dark ruby hue. Smooth, will purchase again!

Black ink is a term used by the wine industry to describe the wines coloring and opacity. A blend of Syrah, Merlot, Malbec, and Zinfandel, very dark purple color with aromas of dark fruits. On the palate tart black fruit flavors, harsh tannins and overly acidic. Medium finish without balance. Pass. Tasting Sample.
