Description
This blend is 41% Merlot, 13% Syrah, 12% Malbec, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Zinfandel, 9% Petit Sirah, 2% Pinot Noir, 2% Dolcetto and 2% Viognier, and was aged 13% new oak (9% French and 4% American).
Aromas of deep black cherry and boysenberry fruit are underlaid by spicy vanilla flavored oak, along with supporting flavors of raspberry, plum, licorice, and chocolate. The wine has a well-constructed young palate, with fruit crammed into the structure to form an intense ripe boysenberry center.
