The wine is ripe, glossy, lush and fruity with smoke, espresso and a note of Chartreuse in the finish. The wine is already easy to drink and will probably be best in its upfront, forward styled youth with a nice cellar chill. The wine is produced from an unusual blend of 25% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Syrah, 15% Caladoc, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Grenache and 5% Carignan.

Deep in color, the jammy black fruit, licorice, raisinand stone scents open to a fat, prune and black cherry finish. While this is a very ripe style of wine, which will please some more than others, the finish was clipped. I would not decant this, it's ready to drink now.

Black cherry, pepper, earth and strawberry jam scents open to a medium/full bodied, accessible, sweet, jammy, tar and black cherry finish with a hint of bitter in the end. I'd drink this blend of 63% Syrah, 25% Grenache and 12% Mourvedre over the next few years

With a deep colored hue, jam, licorice, over ripe cherries, menthol and wild herbs are found in the nose. Medium/full bodied, and a medicinal, stemmy, red berry finish. The wine improved with air a bit, softening and dropping some of initial its over ripe qualities.
