Enticing bouquet of black and blue fruit, purple Twizzlers, and licorice. The palate is smooth, lush, and balanced, with a charming gravelly resonance and blueberry syrup flavors that turn succulent and juicier the longer the wine sits in the glass. White pepper and crushed rocks on the long, gentle finish.

Not decanted, two small pours consumed over ~1 hour. Showing a bit of color development, but this was in pretty good shape overall. Warm red fruit, a bit of structure, a little spice, just a hint of heat poking through. A crowd-pleaser for the evening, probably best over the next few years.

Nice black and blue fruit flavors, spicy notes in this Rhone-style blend mostly of Syrah 51% and Grenache 39%.
