Appearance: Deep ruby/purple color to the rim.
Nose: Rich aromatic and focused with plenty of black fruit, smoke and black pepper, delivering a ripe mass of black fruit compote, cedar and spice.
Palate: A powerful wine, yet well balanced and structured with fine velvet tannins.  The ripe Grenache element gives glimpses of red fruits amongst the dark flavors of the Syrah.
Finish: Rich and persistent.
