The aromas suggest elegance with great depth and complexity and the palate brings power, structure, and a more brooding demeanor. This wine is beautifully layered with notes of dark cherry, violet, sassafras, cured black olive, and a mélange of berries, hints of cedar and dark chocolate shavings. The palate shows the Syrah up front, soft and approachable with chalky tannins, and the Cabernet Sauvignon brings the structure and backbone.
