Ripe blackberry vine, a lovely nose.
“Medium bodied, with stone grown fruits, crushed river stone, touched by smoke and a bit of acidity.
Perfect fall weather wine.

Deep inky purple hue with medium-high saturation. Aromas and flavors of blackcurrant, cherry, forest floor, graphite, sage, savory, toast, and violet. Full body; full, firm tannins; and medium-plus acidity. Subtle yet inviting nose, with a bold palate. Long, lingering finish. Intense, dark, and deep.

Paired really well with chili and a dark chocolate dessert. Let it aerate.

Thin and can't seem to decide if it wants to be sweet or savory Syrah.
