A hit with all of Avalon's employees, highly recommended. Huge, lush, viscous, mocha, toasted espresso bean, dark plum and black berry flavors. A Yumm Bucket.

'Exceptional' - Dan Berger's Vintage Experiences
"Huge aroma of cranberry, fresh plums, spices and jam. The taste is utterly succulent, with loads of jammy/spicy fruit and an almost sweet finish. Not a long aging wine, but this Grenache-Syrah blend from Washington is a beguiling effort that's simply smashing with almost any food. Limited, but I encourage orders."

TASTING NOTES: Enticing aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry, and plum interwined with beautiful oak, tobacco, and soft spice characteristics. The rich mouth feel gives way to a long lingering finish.

VINEYARD: Alder Ridge, Columbia Valley

FERMENTATION: Barrel fermented in 50% new French oak and 50% in 1-2 year old French oak barrels

BLEND: 36% Grenache, 36% Syrah, 14% Mouvedre, 14% Counoise
