Dark inky in color with a short and cloudy, deep brick rim.
Fruity nose of plums, cherries, wood, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, herbs, light vegetables, vinaigrette, tobacco and diet cola.
Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with plums, cherries, currants, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, vinaigrette, vegetables, tobacco, bitter herbs and peppercorn.
Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a nice Syrah blend from Sonoma County. Tangy and spicy with lots of black fruits. Showing great complexity and mouthfeel.
This 8 year old is not from the best of vintages, and over the hill by now, but very tasty nonetheless.
Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up (2 hours).
I paired it with cheeses and light appetizers.
A blend of 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier.
13.6% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
$35.
