Really good and interesting Syrah, with chocolate, campfire, menthol and prune on the nose. With airing the wine quickly settles into a deep, smooth berry and chocolate groove, while the finish deals pure tannins and comfort. Ripe but not raisiny; a really nice example of Jumilla Syrah, with 4% Viognier blended in for lightness (and it still weighs in at 14.9%).

Ripe fruit flavors of blackberry and black currant mingle with dark chocolate and iron notes in this brooding red. It's firm on the palate, but not ponderous, with lithe tannins and a fresh, spicy finish. Syrah with Viognier. Drink now through 2009. 200 cases imported. –TM" - Rated 88, Wine Spectator
