A firm, structured Syrah dominant blend. Not much fruit. Pepper and garrigue. Pair with meat or aged cheese.

Apr 13th, 2016Mostly red/black cherry dominates on the nose as well as blue berry. Dusty and stoney, no overwhelming oakyness. Palate: mostly unsweetened cherry syrup dominate when first opened it. Beside that nothing really interest me. Tried the next day, the wine opened up a little bit better. There was red/black cherry, black berry, blueberry and some herbs, cedar and eathyness on the nose. Showed more fruit on the palate still the artificial cherry syrup tone is still there but a lot milder compare to when first open it. Not my favorite Syrah blend wine.

Sep 29th, 2014Inky dark, satisfying. Oddly low on fruit, but still good. Well worth the $17.
