Country: US / Test Pilot P-47D Thunderbolt
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Cooper-Garrod / Santa Cruz Mountains
This blend of 64% Syrah and 36% Cabernet Sauvignon is starting to show its age, with light prune, dried cherry-tobacco and clove aromas. Dried strawberry, star anise and baking spice arise on the palate, which is full of flavor but should be enjoyed soon.
