Ancient Peaks
Renegade Margarita Vineyard Syrah Blend
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
Blend of 83% Syrah, 14% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec, deep Ruby red color with aromas of black fruits, baking spice and cedar notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and ripe blueberry with pepper, oak, cacao and herb notes. Fine savory tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, oak and spice. Drinking well now, will improve! Nice!

Dark, near black purple. Inviting (but surprisingly tame) nose of bitter blueberries and patent leather. Full-bodied palate is smooth (very mild tannins and medium-ish acidity) and yields ripe blueberries in 90% dark chocolate in a patent leather bowl. Medium finish continues the palate. Excellent Paso red with three BBQ- ready varieties (Syrah, Malbec, Petit Verdot). Grilled meats with a tangy sauce are a natural. Drink now through 2024.

Solid Paso blend: Syrah and Malbec dominate. Fruit forward but balanced.

Nice rounded blend. Way overpriced in the whole e bar but looks reasonable retail.

Rich but a nice touch of acid from the PV, bramble berry, lil pepper, spicebox, it's good. Worth the $ but not a crazy value
