Justin Savant 2004

This blend of 50% Syrah and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon is so intense and concentrated you cannot see through the wine. Almost black in color, the wine has aromas of ripe plum, wild berry and black currant. The entry is soft, with medium acidity and flavors of raspberry, black cherry and a hint of cedar box. The Syrah portion of this wine was fermented in barrel, and the oak integration from this process has created a seamless integration of oak and tannins on the finish. In three words: lush, powerful, complex.
