This combines 60% Zinfandel, 28% Syrah and 6% each of Grenache and Petite Sirah into a hearty whole, the grapes given time in concrete tank and neutral French oak. Earthy and aromatic in garrigue, lavender and black licorice, it is thick and meaty, with a fruity underbelly of raspberry.

Plums, blueberries, peppery herbs, and cedary spice notes all emerge from the 2018 Smoke & Mirrors, another charming, medium to full-bodied, pure, balanced wine in the lineup. It's already impossible to resist and there's no need to delay gratification, although I see no reason it won't evolve for at least 4-6 years.
