The color is opaque red-black. Crimson-purple rim. Powerful impression of blackberries, with a hint of wood smoke and sweet vanilla. The nose begins to open up and develops notes of dark chocolate. The initial impact is very full bodied, with a plush, soft structure. Flavors of dark berries dominate; wild blackberries and dried plums, with notes of espresso coffee.

Pair with rice based dishes like paella, beef, pork, pasta, grilled vegetables.

A rich, medium- to full-bodied red, with an underpinning of mesquite smoke and loamy earth and flavors of fig cake, baked black currant, dried mint and mocha. Creamy and balanced, with supple tannins showing on the lightly spiced finish. Drink now

Sweet coffee, chocolate and smoke to the tarry black cherries. A full-bodied syrah with firm tannins that provide some chew to the back of the palate, before a slightly warming finish. Give it one more year to come around. The woody sweetness and tannins are a little dominating now.
