Aged 20-24 months in used French oak, the 2001 Marion Vineyard (a blend of Grenache and Shiraz) possesses a deep ruby/purple color as well as a big, sweet bouquet of melted licorice, earth, black currants, and raspberries. Medium to full-bodied and powerful, with noticeable tannin as well as excellent depth and richness, it should drink well for 5-8 years.
