A bit of a score whore, this wine was made for the magazines. Decanted 1 hr. ahead. Very deep purple-garnet color. Rich nose of black pepper, mushroom, black cherry, tobacco. Full-bodied and fruit-forward on the palate, with cola joining in a round and generous body. Pine notes in the finish along with medium tannins. Intense overall.

Pnp, drank over 2 hours. Hints of cola and Pinot like tastes, but Syrah blackberry and dark chocolate too. Nice density and quality. Enjoyed by all.

Has a creamy and buttery feel. Would love to have a pastry with this. It mimics a Chardonnay. Good taste of dark berries. Nose like boysenberry pie.
