2009 Force Majeure Cabernet Sauvignon Collaboration Series V Ciel du Cheval Vineyard

Dark garnet in the glass with a tiny clear meniscus. Ripe blackberry on the nose, touch of bramble and menthol lurking behind, very appealing. A bit more muddled on the palate, low acid, lots of black fruit, some cedar, and a hint of tannins on the finish.

I liked this much more as a wine to pair with food . It is a big, bold, lush take on Syrah for sure.

This bottle was very different than described at release by those who tasted early. The merlot gave it bright red fruit, and the Cab (10 %) gave it some nice herb. Such a surprise, not hedonistic or over the top at all.
