Concentrated. Hot. Cloying. Not my cup of tea.

2012 Vintage. Violet color with a bit hot mixed red and black fruit liqueur, red licorice,spice and a bit of garrigue aromas. On the palate it full-bodied with a lush texture and good acidity with cherry, blackberry, plum,vanilla and spice flavors. Lingering finish 14.9% Blend of Zin, Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Petite Sirah, Cab, and Alicante Bouschet.

Intense raspberry nose with a hint of mince pie. Def a syrah in this. Very smooth and silky mouthfeel, and powerfully concentrated. Hint of tannins, with raspberry and licorice. Nice this!
