Interesting wine from Pass Robles very highly regarded and for good reason. 70% cab and 30% petit verdot. Inky yet smooth after it opens up.

Unique smell compared to the rest. Tea leaves but sweet? Taste is sweet and fruity. Much too fruit forward. Some caramel. 8.6
$80

Another great wine from Paso Robles with fantastic fragrance and a flavour profile to rival some Napa big boys which sell for 2,3 even 4 times the price. Fantastic aromas straight out of the bottle with blackberry and black currant combined with vanilla, oak and violet perfume. Taste develops by the minute in the decanter and early dry minerality smooths into a long and rich finish. Really enjoyable now and no doubt will get better and better. Note: there is no Syrah in this vintage despite the title of the page. 2015 is Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. New high score for me.
