  (Force Majeure Collaboration Series III Red Wine Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Red Mountain) Dark in color, it has very pretty, appealing aromas of dark fruit, barrel spices, raspberry, currant, pepper, and mineral notes. The palate is rich, intense, and focused while still retaining its elegance and freshness. 100% Syrah (4 different clones). Aged in 20 French oak (33% new, Burgundy barrels). 14.7% alcohol. 250 cases produced. Mike Macmorran (Mark Ryan, Manu Propria, Force Majeure Estate) winemaker.
