Winery Review: "This
semi-opaque ruby, custom cuvée of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre is
made specifically for Fran Kysela. It exhibits very fresh, ripe dark red fruit
with very good palate weight and depth and ends with rich fruit notes. Made
from organically grown grapes. Incredible value!"

My review: The wine smelled of a floral/fruity scent and a hint of pepper. After tasting the wine, it was very smooth and I could taste the pepper very clearly. The wine left an after taste of blueberries. For a red wine, I did enjoy the taste of the blueberries, but overall I didn't really like it. I would not purchase this wine.
Food Pairing: None
