This is basically a Bordeaux blend based on Cabernet Sauvignon, with a hefty dollop of Petite Sirah. The latter brings tannic weight and dark color, but the most remarkable feature is the deep, delicious flavor. This wine floods the mouth with blackberry tart, dark chocolate, anise and sandalwood flavors. It’s a bit high in alcohol, though, which shows in a hot finish.——S.H.(4/1/2012)—— 88

Here’s a soft, rich red wine that satisfies for its velvety mouthfeel and complex flavors. Made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Merlot and Petit Verdot, it offers blackberry, currant, bacon, dark chocolate and black pepper notes that finish smooth and long. Advances the argument for these unusual blends from Paso Robles.——S.H.(11/1/2010)—— 90

A smooth, lush wine that feels soft and velvety in the mouth. It has complex flavors of black and red cherries, currants, mocha, bacon, anise, black pepper and sandalwood, with some fruity sweetness on the finish. Impressive. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah and Zinfandel should hold and improve for several more years.——S.H.(11/1/2009)—— 90
