Gorgeous nose. But, the high percentage of Petite Sirah seems to clamp down and close this wine off on the mid palate through the finish. May be better in a couple of years.

Very enjoyable. Feel like maybe the mourvedre and PS hadn't integrated. Bigger wine with good mouthfeel.

Smooth texture and soft tannins make this an easy drinking Rhone style wine. Notes of pepper, red clay, and blackberry.

Nose: Hot tar that was just rained on <shrug> and dark fruit.
Taste: Well balanced fruit, spice and smooth tannins.
