75% syrah and 25% cinsault from the oldest continually cultivated vinifera vineyard in the walla walla valley. the spicy, intensely aromatic nose mixes black cherry, concentrated cassis, coffee, bacon, leather and roasted nuts. it unfolds in layer upon layer of rich fruit, tannin, leather and smoke. dense, deep and rhône-like, it finishes with a montage of meaty, peppery, bacon-smoke flavors.
