I liked this more at home than at the winery (and obviously I liked it there since I bought a bottle). Definitely oaky, but there's a lot of spice and clearly syrah on the nose (asphalt and minerals). Delightful. It could probably afford to soften up over another year or so.

Beautiful Rhone blend with nice French oak. Hints of spice, coca, dark fruit and a wonderful finish. Great wine for food.

Very smooth wine. Red berry and floral components. Soft tannins. Great food wine.
