tribute is 41% syrah, 30% merlot and 27% cabernet sauvignon, all estate-grown. the bouquet opens immediately into a fascinating complexity. what wafts up from the glass is a heady mix of incense, smoke, jam, toast, iron and herb—you can spend a pleasant 10 or 15 minutes just counting all the threads. spicy, loaded with raspberry and strawberry fruit, gentle acids and silky tannins, this glides comfortably into a tangy finish.
