Villa Creek "Willow Creek" Paso Robles 2006

Red purple.

Vinturi - seamless, suave, oak spice/nut, cherry/raspberry, earth nose.

Wildly round/sweet texture in the mouth, with just a slight spike of VA (?) in the mid-palate. Acid/mineral chew kicks in on the finish but does not kill subtle finishing flavors of earth/spice/raspberry.

$40 60% Grenache, 20% each Syrah and Mourvedre. 15.5% alcohol.
