PNP and very nice right out of the bottle. Ripe pomegrante, plum, orange spice and mild cedar notes. Well balanced tannins, acidity, rich flavors and aromas. Complex yet an easy drinking and fun wine.

My least fav of the saxum lineup-certainly beautiful in the glass with dark, dried fruit notes. Not overripe but close. The mouth feel is firm with notable alcohol and nicely matched acidity. Well received but not the luxurious impact of the syrah and grenache dominant blends

Four hour slo-ox, one hour full decant. What a monster of a wine! Full bodied, full throttle, glorious dark fruits with powerful, but somewhat integrated tannins. Several layers of nuance and complexity. Noticeable nod to Petite Syrah, very nicely done. Long, long finish. Only one magnum left, and I'll let that one sit for a few more years. Very pleasing wine.

Bright and primarily red fruited flavors with a nice spice on the finish.

Dark inky wine, with dark fruit flavors, well-structured tannins, and a long finish.
