spiced plums and purple flowers such as violet make for an appealing aromatic profile on this well-priced wine, a blend of 57% syrah, 23% petite sirah, 17% grenache and 3% viognier. the palate is soft with flavors of ginger and red currant, tasting elegant though not exactly restrained. the strong tannins could use until 2016 to mellow out properly.
