an impressive, cool-climate take on a rhône blend, this mix of 60% syrah, 25% grenache and 15% mourvèdre shows fresh boysenberry, black pepper, crushed lavender and potpourri on the fresh nose. lots of lively energy lands on the palate, where more pepper and purple fruits are enhanced by dried fennel, crushed marjoram, tarragon and layers of sharp yet savory flavor.
