Made from a blend of 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Barbera, 20% Petite Sirah, 15% Syrah, 10% Counoise, 13% Tempranillo and Petit Verdot this wine really lives up to its name. Bright purple in the glass, the nose shows perfumed red fruit, candied cranberries and a hit of vanilla. The is smooth and mouth filling. Ripe black fruit with a touch of spice and well integrated wood. I think I was a little harsh last time, so upgrading the score!
