Ruby/ purple in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose of blueberries, black plums, spices and dark chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, cooked cherries, blueberries, spices, light oak, earth and chocolates. 

Short finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a tasty and easy drinking Syrah blend from France. Fruit forward and good by itself or with food.

Good right out of the bottle, and gets earthier as it opens up.

This 5 year old is drinking at its peak now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years. 

A blend of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Carignan. Kosher and organic. 

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Light red in color with medium intensity.

Fruity nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red fruits with earth, light wood, spices and coffee notes. 

Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Drinking nicely now with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel. 

Good by itself, and a good food wine.
