2017 Soul Shaker Cab/Syrah

This proprietary blend offers up seductive aromas of ripe currants, black cherries, pomegranate, cranberry, chocolate, exotic spices, herbs, toasted hazelnut,and hints of roasted coffee on the nose and palate. The fruit is delivered by medium acidity and firm tannins, which explode on your palate leaving you with a mouthful of dark, intense fruit. The 2016 vintage has the structure and depth to evolve for over a decade.
