Celebrating Bastille Day with the spring dinner of the Confrerie St Etienne of Alsace association. Wonderful menu and perfectly paired wines.

Mainly cab/Syrah, with a splash of Malbec. Unique. Could pick out the inky and muddled blackberries of the Malbec easily. The Syrah provided more tart rhubarb and violets as opposed to darker/meatier Napa Syrahs. Heavy on the mid palate. Juicy and extracted finish of red and black fruits.

Nose of toasted oak and herbs. Lucious mouthfeel on this interesting blend. Balanced with dark fruits and excellent acidity. Quaffable.

Wow, loved this wine, dark rich red color, full bodied. Lots of dark fruit on the nose, with leather and tobacco, smith oak finish, buy it!

Cab blends with Syrah are alway interesting. Thai food might not have been the best option for tasting this wine for the first time.
