51% Syrah/49% Grenache, 14.5% alcohol. Mid neck fill. Deep garnet color in glass with thin fading rims. Lovely earthy bouquet. Wonderful "masculine" body on palate. Alcohol does not intrude. No subtlety or finesse just raw power. Slightly beyond peak. No sediment.

Pure and elegant red fruit and tarwith focused flavors. Toasty and spicy. Fresh acidity and solid structure. Medium to long length and pleasant finish.

Getting past its prime. Brash pepper and anise upon opening mellowed away to flavors of pepper and subtle strawberry with the grenache flavors stronger than the syrah.

With Wagyu boneless ribeye steak, roast carrots and potatoes. Opened 30 minutes prior to serving, decanted 5 minutes early. Fine sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Almost opaque crimson, good consistency to the rim. Nice fruit nose with touch of tobacco, lovely but with some power. Smooth, rich, integrated, medium weight. Tannin and acid beautifully in touch. A subtle richness expands with the tasting. Long finish with baking spices and black cherry. Wonderful.
