Country: US / California
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
Winery: Star Angel by Montes / Aurelio’s Selection
This Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre blend shows hot alcohol and superripe flavors of blackberries, cassis, dark chocolate and raisins. It’s a big, rich, thick wine that sticks to the gums, almost syrupy, but fully dry. Decant it and drink with stews, casseroles, barbecue.
