Top Notes For

8.8

Solid value Syrah, Merlot, Petit Syrah blend with a definitely strong oak influence. Lots of vanilla and cherry / red fruits dominate. I don't want to say overpower but it's approaching that if you don't decant this first. balanced mouth feel. A subtle earthy plum peeks through but that's about as complex as it gets. 88/3.8
