El Llano Napa Valley Red Blend

Love cab/Syrah blends. Dark fruit and savory of cab and cherries and silky tannins of Syrah.

Blueberry, black berry, raspberry pie filling in a glass.

Yum

Nice. Good value when on sale.

Best 2011 I've had in ages

This blend is named after the small village where my mother is from in Mexico. The "el llano"

Pleasing Cab - Syrah blend. Good fruit and balance. Nice match with Erin's killer chili.

Every time I take a sip I think, "I really should have this more often."

Vanillin r us!
Much better presentation that prior vintages. Approachable, accessible, and slips down, easily.

Firing on all cylinders right out of the bottle. Crème de cassis, ripe blackberry, creamy dark chocolate, and some secondary peppered meat. Extracted and hedonistic, but not over done.
