  Decanted a portion and it opened within an hour. Same at 24 and 48 hrs although opened up quicker each time. Deep ruby and medium purple color. Blackberry, cassis on the nose. Blackberry and blueberry and a touch of black pepper on the palate which is rounded out by the viognier with a 37 or so sec finish. The blend does allow it to pair easily with a variety of dishes ranging from sausage marinara pasta to salmon in mustard sauce. Not the most complex wine but fairly clear in composition and a harmonious blend.

  Beautiful bouquet. Dark fruit, fine tannins yet profound. Not subtle, yet finessed.

  Other notes are spot on. Great wine that has the ability to get better. Deep dark fruit profile with wonderful mouth feel. Balanced.

  Decanted for 8 hours then consumed over the next three. A seemingly strange blend of Syrah and Graciano with a whopping 14% Viognier which I believe to be a first for me. The early result is a beautifully crafted blue fruited wine. Already silky in texture, this bottle displayed energy with composure. Precocious but so well-behaved. The Viognier is a noticeable undertone but elegantly infused. This bottle was a really fresh and interesting experience.

  Stunner! Tons of blue fruit and just enough tartness to keep it fresh and lively. Everything about this wine works.
