"(Includes 12% petite sirah . . . made from fruit picked on September 22 and 26, before the major rainstorms of early October): Full ruby. Heady, explosively perfumed aromas of candied black and blue fruits, incense and licorice, with a powerful spicy topnote. Sappy and palate-coating, offering ripe dark fruit and floral flavors and showing a smooth, velvety texture. Closes broad and very long, with lingering spiciness and soft tannins. Excellent value here."
