42% Petite Sirah, 42% Zinfandel, 7% Carignane, 4% Syrah, 2% Barbera, 2% Grenache, 1% Mourvèdre. Medium nose is dark, black plum, blackberry, brooding, baking spice, dried herbs. Palate is juicy, dark fruits, oak notes obvious, cedar, dried vanilla, black cassis, sweet peppers, dark raspberry. A little hedonistic but delicious and not as over the top as some. Good value as well, since some in this category are going astronomical.

Pop and pour. Haven't had a bottle for a few months. Very approachable. Soft tannins, fruit forward, silky finish. Plum and licorice on the nose

This is a fantastic wine. Red blend leading with Zin and syrah. Smooth tannins and packed with fruit

Decent red blend, a little darker and more tannic than what I'd typically go for. Would be good with grilled beef in the fall.
