Dark purple in color with a purplish rim.
Very fruity nose of blackberries, black cherries, raisins, figs, wood, light vanilla, licorice, coffee, mocha, milk chocolates, earth and black pepper.
Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry to off dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, raisins, vanilla, oak, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, coffee, earth, light vegetables, pencil lead and peppercorn.
Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a nice red blend from Washington State. Balanced with mild complexity. Has some residual sugar, and might be too sweet for some. I had it chilled, and that was better.
Good right out of the bottle, but better after 90 minutes in a decanter. This won't last too long, so if you have this 4 year old blend, drink up.
A blend of 63% Syrah, 33% Merlot and 4% Viognier.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
87 Points.
$14.

Very astringent, and feels thin in the mouth. Wood and mild citrus flavors that are quickly overcome with a moderately bitter flavor. Overall, not a fan.
