Wow, a Fav! Had about a year ago, tried again, aged well. Blend of Petite Sirah, Syrah & Grenache, aged for 10 months on French oak (40% new). Deep Ruby with aromas of black fruits & sweet spice. On the palate, ripe blueberries, plum & sweet cherry with oak & vanilla spice, Lingering finish, good length, tannins are soft, softer than year ago. Good structure, ending with fruit character & mineral tones, drinks well, better to decant. Produced with 12 different labels. Nice!
