this rhône blend of syrah, grenache and mourvèdre contains a splash of petite sirah. it's a classy wine, bone dry, tannic and full-bodied, and while it shows the rustic, briary nature of dry creek valley, it's awesome in blackberries, cherries, raspberries and mocha, with a deliciously meaty edge of bacon. there's no reason why this wine shouldn't age in interesting ways over the next six years.
