Note di degustazione
(a blend of 60% syrah, 30% mourvedre and 10% grenache) Medium ruby. Expressive aromas of licorice, smoked meat, spicecake, tree bark and tar, with plenty of dark fruits in the background. Then sweet, creamy and expansive, with juicy dark berry flavors nicely framed by peppery spices and ripe acidity. The long finish features sweet, dusty tannins and lingering blackberry and boysenberry fruit.

The dark ruby-hued 2004 Heart Stone Vineyard (a 200-case blend of 60% Syrah, 30% Mourvedre, and 10% Grenache) boasts a stunning perfume of flowers, blueberries, and briery, wild berry fruit. The distinctive aromatics are followed by a wine with soft tannins, medium to full body, and well-integrated acidity, tannin, and wood. It should evolve for 12 or more years. Tel. (805) 227-4662
