2006 Saxum Bone Rock James Berry Vineyard, USA, California, Paso Robles, Wine Review
76% Syrah, 18% Mourvedre, and 6% Grenache. This weighed in at 16.7% abv! Again, this is a monster wine, but it doesn't drink like one. No noticeable alcohol on the nose or palate. Inky purple in color, opaque and bright. The nose has black raspberries, plums, White pepper, Roasted herbs and slight earthy/gamey meats. Full bodied. Great acidity.
