A blend of equal parts Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2004 Black and Blue Proprietary Red Wine is a more tightly knit wine meant for longer aging (the Cabernet firms it up as well as giving it more bulk and structure). The overall impression is one of opulent black fruits, spice box, licorice, and melted asphalt. Enjoy this ripe, medium-bodied, pure, well-made 2004 over the next 7-8 years. Tel. (707) 261-2000
