Tuesday, October 20, 2015 - 2015 New York Wine Experience Trip; 10/19/2015-10/27/2015 (New York City, NY): Deep ruby and packed with fruit, this blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Syrah, 7% Petite Sirah, 4% Zinfandel and 4% Petit Verdot served as a worthy accompaniment to a late-night snack plate in a New York hotel. Medium-bodied, ripe, round and seamlessly alcoholic (14.4%), it delivers a payload of dark bramble fruits, vanilla and pickling spice on both the nose and palate. The tannins are medium in weight but carry some astringent grip. The oak component is likewise not shy in the middle. Medium in length and a bit dry on the finish, this is a wine which will benefit from short-term cellaring. It may merit a higher score in the future. Drink 2017-2022.
