Monday, May 11, 2015 - Like an early-drinking Cotes du Rhone in weight and structure, but with CA fruit. Not much tannin, though the acidity brings nice balance. Mostly black cherry/blackberry, not roasted or heavy, and set apart by the savory, bacony Syrah character on both the nose and attack. The umami on the attack is tasty, though there isn't much to the finish. Not an ager, though the balance should keep it in good shape for at least a few years.
Interestingly, the cork has Foggy Veil inscribed, and usually private label brands go with a generic cork. Makes me wonder if this was originally intended as a TJs private label.
