A field blend of 60% Syrah 19% Grenache 9% Tempranillo 8% Zinfandel and 4% Mourvedre that's aged for 23 months in French oak barrels and puncheons 23% being new it boast an inky opaque color to go with deep dense aromas of black fruits crushed stone licorice earth and peppered steak like qualities on the nose. Certainly the most straight forward aromatically of the line-up this doesn't lose much on the palate and delivers a full-bodied balanced mouth feel thrilling levels of polished fruit and an overall fresh straight up delicious profile.
