Vintage Cellar Review: "This semi-opaque ruby, custom cuvee of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre is made specifically for Fran Kysela. It exhibits very fresh, ripe dark red fruit with very good palate weight and depth and ends with rich fruit notes. Made from organically grown grapes. Incredible value!" - I-Wine Review (December 2013), 90 pts.

My Review: This red seemed to be loaded with tannins as it was very dry and a little tough. It was a bit overwhelming but I did notice a hint of cherries that gave it some flavor. This one was a little strong for my liking.

Food: No
