Hearty Syrah-Mourvèdre blend that was juicy enough for the diverse flavors at Thanksgiving. But I think it would have preferred a meatier meal.

Dark ruby in color with a light red rim.
On the Nose, wild herbs, blackberries, plums and flowers.

Dry on the Palate and fruity with cherries, blackberries and plums.

Medium bodied with Nice legs.

Long finish with lots of black peppercorn and big full tannings.

A nice, organic, blend of 86% Sirah and 14% Mourvedre.

Aged in french oak and cement (50%) tanks for 12 months.
WA 93.

14% alcohol by volume.

Ok. I wanted an Alain Graillot St Joseph, but the restaurant had run out and suggested this.

What you'd expect. Tar, black fruit, some medicinal notes. Fruit isn't overly jammy. Good.

Needs an hour, but develops into nice raspberry notes, and a nicely priced Syrah blend.

Excellent drinkability. Fresh but dense at the same time. Juicy black plum, parsley, light cassia. Only issue is the finish drops off a bit.
