Critics 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-WineReview (December 2013), 90 pts.
My review: The nice berry color of the wine and berry scent gave a wonderful first impression of the wine. The fruit started and ended with a perfect flavor and the palate balance was perfect. Some hints of possible plum and raspberry flavors come to mind. Any steak dinner or stew with fresh vegetables would pair nicely with this wine.The taste of the wine tastes more expensive than the price as well!
I tasted this on it's own without food.
