Winery Review: 

-"A blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petite Sirah. Without a doubt, very smooth and uniquely balanced. Not too dry but not too sweet. Has a foundation of raspberry and blackberry that lingers in the finish. A slight hint at vanilla and some spice when it touches your tongue."

-This wine was not as strong on the nose. I tasted hints of cherry and other deep red fruits. I thought the wine was well balanced between dry and sweet, although still not something I think I would drink frequently. I tried this wine on its own without food.
