My favorite Paso winery. One of the OG Rhône Rangers coming over from France in the 1970s. This is his entry level wine and even it is sublime. 2011 vintage and still going strong. 50% Syrah, 33% Cab, 17% Petit Verdot. ABV 15.1%.

Bright syrah character, a little meatiness and earthy character. Big gripping palate, sneakily high alcohol, can definitely develop w some age

Inky purple color with an exuberant perfume that brings to mind blackberry, kirsch, violets, graphite and a bit of smoked spice aromas. On the palate, it's full-bodied, and harmonious with lively acidity, supple well integrated tannins, and a silky texture. It shows enticing black cherry, blackberry , plum, cassis, dark roast coffee, bittersweet chocolate flavors, and an appealing minerality with a long satisfying finish. A flat out delicious blend of 48% cabernet sauvignon, 28% syrah and 24% petit verdot; 15.5% alcohol. First vintage from all estate fruit.
