nice deep dark burgundy in color. wine had been decanted for about an hour. aromas of cedar, dried herbs, smoky dark berries and currants, oaky and some tobacco. flavors were very true to the nose. Tannins were firm and tight due to the youth of the wine and the small amount of petite sirah. additionally, I feel that the oak tannin also played a role in this. I feel that with age the oak tannin will over shadow the fruit and lose some of its complexity. should age well for the next 8-10 yrs maybe longer. not bad for a $20 bottle.

Coffee dominated palate for me, some red fruits. Ok length, purple in glass.
