Pianetta 2011 Bilancio Syrah-Cabernet Sauvignon (Monterey County)

Country: US / Bilancio
Variety: Syrah-Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Pianetta / Monterey County

Delicious aromas of cherry-crusted beef, coconut, blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream and sassafras frame this blend of 63% Syrah and 37% Cabernet Sauvignon from southern Monterey County. The wine coats the mouth luxuriously, with black cherry and pepper spice. It drinks well now, but has mouth-coating tannins that will evoke with time.
