Nose is blueberry and vanilla bean. Flavors are ripe blackberry and floral. Very lush and rich. Not tremendously complex, but still quite enjoyable. Medium finish with a bit of tannin.

I've had a number of bottles of this over the last year and this one was the best. It has smoothed out and opened up, with dark fruit and a floral element on the nose and expansive ripe blackberry and blueberry fruit on the palate along with some white pepper. It all stays balanced and under control.

Inky color. Real spicy, but the Viognier tempers it down a little bit.

Currents and berries. Sweet savory flavors backed up by oak and spice. Lovely drop.
