Took a little time to open, but nice little wine. Loads of sour, sweet tart cherry.

Warm, inviting white pepper, tapenade, green pepper with black and blue berries. Smells ripe and rich. Powerful texture of cassis, roasted oak, dried oregano and firm, grainy tannin. Modern style, some polish, without being alcoholic. Fun in the mouth

Pretty dusty and exotic blue flower, warm spice, earth tapenade and blackberry-raspberry nose. Quite showy and real spicy! Full and plush palate, flecked with pepper, violets blueberries and dried oregano. Moderate grippy tannins, enough acidity, and just a touch of heat frame a long spicy finish and makes you dream of slurping tomato base pasta amongst a feild of straw colored grass in the sweltering heat!

Candied black cherry, plum, bacon, black pepper, tobacco and spice box. Juicy, ripe fruit which bounces around the palate with leather and spiced dried meat. Finishes with dark berry fruit. Syrah seems more dominant. Solid old world feel.
