Another solid blend of the “Unbound” series. Grippy tannins and much constraint. After tasting three different vintages, I have to conclude that Petit Syrah/Tannat blends just don’t quite get there - ever. Too austere compared to Cab and Syrah blends.

Superb blend with 81% Petit Syrah, 14% Tannat, and 5% Tempranillo. Very dark, good structure, and unlike the ‘15 vintage, not overly austere. In fact, there are many layers of cassis and black fruit. Delicious!

Good blend, balanced and nice finish. 80% Petit Syrah, 12% Tannat, 8% Tempranillo. Plenty of tannins.

A great tasting room and vineyard but I don't care for their wine one bit.

Tannic stewed fruit, good flavor density but a bit monolithic.
