deep red purple color, gravelly textures on nose, fresh cut hay, dark fruits, on the palate very racy and dry, not excessively so- but still a very strong structure framing sharp chalky edges amid which flows a beautiful and sensuous array of dark berries, cherries and plums, a singular and wonderful wine I am encountering for the first time, this would be an excellent choice to accompany a massive steak dinner.

Still surprisingly massive, rich, and significant tannin. This is not a subtle wine, but tasty. Big black and purple fruits, along with tarry tannins. Big mouthfeel but soft and easy drinking. Def a cab based wine. Tasty.

Wow- this was a great Syrah Cab blend- very well made. Blueberrry and cherry, pepper and some oak. Very food friendly wine and drink great on its own. Wish I had bought more. Well Done!!!

Delicious. Perfect balance between the syrah and Cabernet. Lovely. Soft tannins, lovely acid balance. Dark fruits and Earth. Wonderful with beef stew.
