Always one of the better priced and satisfying red blends on the market, this vintage's combination of 83% Syrah, 14% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec delivers all the goods, starting with aromas of fudge, coffee and roasted fig on the hearty nose. The palate is smoky, rich and deep with oak-seared berry, grilled meat and cracked pepper flavors.
