Picked up this with a number of other bottles on a visit to the winery in February. Medium ruby in color, red berries was the primary element on the nose and palate, with hints of spice and vanilla. Very fruit driven, balanced and restrained for a Rhone blend from Paso Robles. 14.2% alcohol, 6 barrels made. Went very well with our dinner and I would classify this as a food wine. Medium/short on the finish.

Very enjoyable, and I would say 89 points. MLV also gave it 89.
