A tasty 50/50 blend of Syrah and Grenache that shows a mix of black and red fruit, lively oak spice, pepper and tobacco leaf, all of which are well integrated from front to back, and finish on the bright side with a kiss of lemon zest. I don’t know where in America the fruit comes from, but it’s clearly a good source. Well done! A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
