Tasting Notes (11/2/2011) "This decadent new red blend flows from the glass with gorgeous texture and features dark plums, blueberries, and an enticing toffee component from the French oak. It is an impressive wine endowed with gorgeous purity in its fruit and a striking, opulent personality. This 'Rhone style' blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre grapes also includes a dash of Zinfandel for even more vibrancy on the silky palate! Enjoy now with any grilled meats or zesty Italian cuisine (trust us!). HIGHLY recommend." - The Wine Insiders "One of California's Super-Star Producers" – Robert Parker PLEASE NOTE: ONLY 10 CASES AVAILABLE = RSVP NOW!
