Stags Leap District, Napa Valley, California, USA
This wine would challenge blind. Many might say Malbec or even Cabernet. It has ripe dark fruits, touch of blueberries, dark raspberries, dark liqueur cherries, mocha, sweet black & white pepper, stems, some light baking spices, violets and dry powdery minerals. It's rich, thick, smooth and elegant on the finish.

Dull. Lots of iron, some plum/prune, and a hint of that vegetal quality of great Syrah. But, meh overall, and horribly overpriced.
