The 2005 Broken Stones, a blend of 74% Syrah, 24% Grenache, and the rest Mourvedre, is a beauty. Notes of licorice, forest floor, pepper, spice box, and loads of black and red fruits jump from the glass as well as saturate the palate. This full-bodied, opulent wine has crisp acidity, some heady alcohol, and loads of flavor, depth, and richness. It is a savory wine to drink now and over the next 7-10 years.

The 2005 Broken Stones (a blend of 74% Syrah, 24% Grenache, and 2% Mourvedre aged in 500 liter French oak pungeons) reveals great purity of fruit along with a beautiful bouquet of flowers, and blue, red, and black fruits, a structured, tannic mouthfeel, full-bodied density, and good freshness as well as depth. It should drink well for 7-8 years.
