Mixed blacks (syrah, grenache, petite sirah, carignane, zin, alicante bouschet, tempranillo). While the 2015s definitely need time (some are coming around lately), this is so soft and approachable. Tasty.

Might prefer this over the royal punishers - blend of zin, petite, Syrah, and Grenache.

A bit dry. Lots of leather. Nice black fruit. Not my favorite Biale, still very good nonetheless.

Great with tomato based pasta dishes,for sure. We love Biale's Black Chicken, and this is essentially the everyday drinker version of that. Dry and medium bodied, but delicious in that catagory.
