Deep ruby red. Decanted for almost 4 hours. Powerful nose with olives, black bramble berries, tar, baking spices and gravel. Heavy tannins (7.5/10) and full bodied. Layered palate with black currants, black olives, a touch savory, herbs, cinnamon and a little dark bit of dark crushed gravel. Long and lingering finish.

One of my favorite Syrah based wines for sure. This 2015 is made up of 80.5% Syrah, 7% Petite Sirah, 7% Mourvèdre, 3.5% Viognier and 2% Grenache. The fruit comes from three of the four estate vineyards: 37% The Third Twin, 36% Eleven Confessions and 27% Cumulus. Fermented separately with around 34% whole bunches and then aged for 22 months in a mix of new and used French oak barrels. Thank you Drew for giving this some extra decant time for us!

Price Point:

Inky purplish red. Layered nose with some iron, purple flowers, cinnamon, a touch smoky, boysenberries, and some blackberries. Heavy tannins (8/10) and full body with notes of cinnamon, vanilla, plums, herbs, tar, blackberries and herbs. Lush and a beast at the same time with tons of layers and structure. Long and never ending finish.
