The 2021 Alec's Blend is mostly Syrah (there's some Merlot, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Franc) and its deep purple hue is followed by a gorgeous perfume of blackberries, blueberries, camphor, ground pepper, and hints of bacon fat. It's full-bodied and has remarkable purity, fine tannins, and a great finish. Drink this incredibly sexy, hedonistic beauty over the coming decade.

Composed of 79% Syrah, 15% Merlot, 3% Petite Sirah, and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Alec's Blend is deep garnet-purple in color. Scents of black cherries, stewed black plums, and mulberries spill from the glass, followed by hints of tar and cracked black pepper. The full-bodied palate is chock full of peppery black fruits with approachable, rounded tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and savory.
