Weekly Wine Committee. 1 sparkler, 3-4 whites, 3-4 reds and 1 dessert wine format. Served blind.
This was a head scratcher. Tasted nothing like Syrah. I called this old Cali cab. It was dense and muddled to the core, yet showed some sweetness upfront. All dark red and black fruit dominant. Some tar and smoke. Pipe tobacco and stewed raspberries in the middle.
