Purple/red.
Vinturi - fragrant, deep nose - spicy fig, balsam, earth/loam, black cherry, wilted greens, peppermint and even some of Schildknecht's "machine oil". Sumptuous, savory.
Round, dense and suave in the mouth with grainy acid/tannin synergy slowly constricting the front teeth. Nice flavor expression throughout. Extremely well-crafted, nuanced wine. I wouldn't be at all surprised if this cellared well for 8-10 years or more.
$17. Crazy. Not sure of the blend, but I'd guess there's quite a bit of Syrah.
