Epoch Estate Wines 2013 Authenticity Red (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Authenticity
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend California
Winery: Epoch Estate Wines / Paso Robles

Dark and thick in the glass, this blend of 82% Syrah and 18% Mourvèdre leads with black cherry syrup, smoked beef and dark chocolate aromas, which blossom as the wine opens. Rich and lavish on the palate, it has fine tannins that frame its blueberry, cassis and mocha flavors. It’s firmly structured, with a lingering acidity.
