Purple Cowboy, Paso Robles (Central Coast, California) 2013

Jan 29, 2015

By Michael Franz

Tenacious, indeed!  This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah shows expressive fruit aromas and lots of immediate fruity flavor, with medium-plus body and a notable sweetness in the finish.  There’s tannin too for definition and grip, but the sweetness of the fruit is well balanced against it, so that the finish of the wine is quite persistent, with the sweetness ultimately outrunning the tannin.  Platinum Award winner at the 2015 San Diego International Wine Competition.
