Plush Lavender with hints of fresh, crunchy red berry.  A swirl of juicy red to purple plum. The fresh, lively front palate leads into a weighty, more serious middle. Exciting spicy pepper notes trace behind the fruit on the nose and ride over the soft, fine tannin. Even now, with a few minutes of air the 50% Syrah takes command, getting darker and bolder, harkening for grilled red meat.
