Ripe and sweet, with hunky open-knit aromas. Shows plum and chocolate cake flavors, but there’s core acidity backing things up. Finishes more tart and snappy. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers.

Brightly tinted to purple, with black cherry, graphite and surity to the nose. The palate pushes lively black cherry, cassis, plum and licorice, while the finish is lush and persistent. With no Cab or Merlot in the mix, this tasty five-grape blend leans on Syrah for its foundation. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers.

Red fruit aromas are common and clean, with ample oak and spice on the side. The palate is flush, juicy and quite tannic, with berry, cola, mocha and toasty oak flavors along with a tough, grippy feel. A five-grape blend that’s forceful, fully oaked and tannic.

This blend of Syrah, Carmenère, Cab Franc and Petit Verdot comes in at a higher level than many. Dark chocolate, almond candy and black fruit work the nose, while the palate is sizable and full of plum and dark berry flavors. Both the oak and acidity are up there, so expect power and a few loose edges as it seeks its sweet spot.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Solid, dark, acidic and tannic wine made from five red grapes. The nose deals cola, olive, leather and undefined saucy aromas, which are backed by flavors of red fruits, herbs and olive. Finishes with a wave of red fruit flavor but also tough, grabby, lasting tannins. Drink now through 2013.
