Cabernet/Syrah/merlot blend. Dark cherry/ faint blueberry, some baking spice. A hint of muscle from the Syrah. Fine grain tannins. Pleasant finish. Lacked depth or focus, but seemed to please the crowd.

55% Cabernet, 26% Merlot, 18% Syrah, 1% Petit Verdot. The Syrah adds a sleek, silky texture that balances the tannic nature of this wine. Plenty of powerful black & blue fruit on the nose and palate. Some mocha & oaky spice on the mid palate. Great producer worth checking out if you’ve never tried their wines.

Police officer Jerry Riener’s Cabernet-Syrah-Merlot blend entices with sexy black cherry and game aromas. This seamless wine is quite refined for its price, offering a captivating balance of dark fruits and spices, with smooth tannins. (ST)
