description: This wine is 70% Shiraz, with Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon filling out the rest of the blend. The JSM isn't quite as good this vintage as it has been in the past, owing largely to its stewy fruit flavors. But it does have its high points. The wine's smooth tannins and sturdy frame are admirable, as are its clay, sand and mocha accents.
variety: Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon
