Dark ruby hue. Aromas of blackberry, cherry, chocolate, pepper, plum, raspberry, strawberry, tar, and vanilla. Medium-bodied, with rich, rounded tannins and medium-plus acidity. Smooth, luscious palate of ripe black fruit with a finish of minerals and oak. Drinking very well now. Blend of Syrah (25%), Grenache (25%), Mourvedre (25%), Zinfandel (15%), and Tempranillo (10%). — 4 years ago

Hints of mocha. Deep and rich. Very fruit forward and velvety. Drys out nicely in the finish. — a year ago
This wine has some serious balls. Not for the faint of heart. GSM with huge tannins and robust dryness. Not subtle but hard to forget.

This is spicy and meaty to the max! BBQ and peppery with a chalky texture and a big, slightly hot finish. This wine is unapologetic. Gorgeous juice. — 9 years ago
