Winery Review: A blend of 55% Merlot, 22% Syrah, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Mourvedre, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Grenache. Wonderful berry fruit on the nose with integrated oak notes woven throughout. On the palate black cherry and blackberries mingle with spice and oak notes. A broad and rich wine with a long elegant finish.
My Review: This was a very fun and flavorful wine. I enjoyed the intense flavors of tabacco and cherry, which presented itself in the mild to strong tannins present in the wine. There was a nice woody finish, that had a nice oaky taste.
I tried this wine by itself.
