Boysenberry scone with vanilla.
A delicious nose.

Full flavoured, berry blend, mediums bodied, vanilla edges and citrus overtones. Smooth, and perfectly aged.
Pepper shows itself after some airtime.

An Eric Solomon selection.

Evenly concentrated, reflective, translucent garnet red with blue hues. Restrained aroma but complex and ripe; saline, violet, pine, raspberry, coconut and bacon. Medium body, medium acid, low astringency, high prickly heat 14.5%. Flavors are quiet on the palate, Black pepper and alcohol dominate. $16

Fantastic value. On the lighter side of Syrah but easy to drink and paired with multiple food options easily.

Tea leaf, green pepper, raspberry and slate. On the lighter side and good, if not a bit simple.
