Note di degustazione
(an 80/20 blend of syrah and petite sirah) Saturated ruby.Musky aromas of cassis, black plum, minerals and earth, with a pronounced oakiness. Fat, lush and sweet but firm-edged, with blackberry and licorice flavors complicated by a saline element. Finishes full and smooth, with substantial building tannins, a peppery quality and some tarry oak.

The 2003 Relentless is heading into a more closed, dormant stage. It reveals more oak than previously, and with coaxing, blueberry, blackberry, scorched earth, and spice aromas emerge from this young, full-bodied, dense, impressive red. This offering receives the same upbringing as the renowned Hillside Select Cabernet Sauvignon, i.e., 30-32 months in 100% new French oak. The 2003 Relentless should evolve for a minimum of 10-15 years. Tel. (707) 944-2877; Fax (707) 944-9454
