  Frankly I thought I had reviewed this wine. Just a testament to Vivino that it's learned what I like. Said I'd love it. Correct! We visited this Vineyard a couple years ago and I fell in love with this and most of their offerings. Enjoying today with my son.
  Beautiful rich purple color Aroma is of earth, dirt and oak with some dark fruit present.
  I am always struck by the velvet nature of the mouth feel on this wine. Glorious.
  Plum, blackberry some earthy notes. Finish is great. Lots of jam notes.

  Wow! Outstanding for a California Rhône Ranger. Mostly Syrah and Petite Sirah, showing itself as bright blue fruit, white flowers, and grilled meat but the Grenache gives this wine its pizazz with some cherry cola and an extremely expressive and lively nose in the glass. So good and drinking great straight out of bottle!
