The 2017 Modus Operandi Noctus was a fitting wine for Halloween. Dark and only purple with a nose of very dark fruits black currants, blackberries, and plums with dried meats and black pepper on the nose. This is a thick, heavy, powerful, brooding wine. Would also be great on a cold night with a hearty stew. Full-bodied for sure, it’s dark, like the night. I believe this blend is made up of Petite Sirah and Syrah.

Deep purple, fabulous nose. Powerful, but still too young to drink. Great potential though.
