Winery review: "This
semi-opaque ruby, custom cuvée of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre is
made specifically for Fran Kysela. It exhibits very fresh, ripe dark red fruit
with very good palate weight and depth and ends with rich fruit notes. Made
from organically grown grapes. Incredible value!"

My review: Divine! This red wine smells dark and fruity. It bursts with woody flavor and delivers a grand tasting experience with a solid mid-palate. I did observe some heat but it was far from over powering. Not paired with food.
