Not really sure what was going on with this bottle, and from what I understand that is the point! Soft, tasty juice defying whatever expectations you may have had; open on a sunny day!

Earth, heather, lavender, red fruit, among others. Nicely balanced, fruits tannins. Can't get over the feeling of walking through Bath and Bodyworks.

Very tasty blend of Pinot Noir, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Sangiovese, and Viognier. Moderate alcohol and not overly oaky. I wish more wines from California were like this one...

So glad to have hung on to a bottle of the IX for so long, especially when I found out from Sean that it was mostly Nebbiolo!
