Comartin 2011 The Porterhouse Syrah-Grenache (Central Coast)

Country: US / California
Variety: Syrah-Grenache
Winery: Comartin / The Porterhouse

This 90% Syrah and 10% Grenache blend, named as an ode to the winemaker’s butcher-ancestors, begins with scents of blueberry crème brûlée with a spearmint glaze. The flavors are comparably light, with tarter blueberry, some licorice on the midpalate and a tannic finish.
