Metier Red Blend 2021

Based on Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, the 2021 Metier Red Blend is a consistently outstanding wine and has upfront blackberry like fruits, complex notes of peppery herb, leather, and earth, medium to full body, ripe tannins, and outstanding length.

The Métier's aroma of orange-scented pipe tobacco makes a nice foil for notes of black cherry and boysenberry. The Syrah-driven blend offers blueberry, leather and black tea flavors that fill the mouth. A touch of powdered sugar floats in the background. Muscular tannins, with a chewy texture.

This is the first vintage of this red blend. Medium-bodied, showing aromas of earth, olive and black plum, plus a touch of violet and black pepper. Linear and savory. 55% syrah, 32% cabernet sauvignon and 13% merlot. Drink now or hold.
