  PNP at Jiko's in Orlando. Tart cherry, spice and a bit of tobacco on the nose, finish was a bit short for a Shyrah blend. Paired well with a nice steak.

  PnP. Nice enough, but ultimately a bit too monolithic for my tastes. My friends, however, enjoyed its rich, thick styling and near syrupy textures. Missing some complexity that I prefer with this type of blend, but made up for it with purity of fruit and sensible acidic cut. The Grenache components seemed to consistently overwhelm the Syrah; also a grapey quality I found a bit off-putting, but others found very inviting. Drink thru 2016.
