A basic red Rhone blend, with a dash of Viognier for acidic brightness. Shows simple, thin flavors of raspberries and cherries, with a dash of sweet oak. ——S.H.(10/1/2010)—— 83

This soft, gently attractive Rhone-style wine is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Viognier. It has delicious flavors of tree fruits, berries and spices, with a mocha finish. ——S.H.(12/15/2008)—— 86

Just delicious, a blend of Syrah, Mourvedre and Grenache that shows how well Paso Robles can make these Rhone reds. The wine is soft and voluptuous, with complex flavors of blackberries, cherries, raspberries, milk chocolate, licorice and cinnamon spice. Finishes long and rewardingly dry.——S.H.(12/31/2007)—— 91
