title: Shafer 2008 Relentless Syrah-Petite Sirah (Napa Valley)
description: Go ahead, knock this wine for high alcohol, if you want. It's still one of the best blends of its kind in California. It oozes blackberry and blueberry jam, melted dark chocolate, bacon, anise and pepper flavors that are extraordinarily rich. Drink it soon for maximum freshness.
variety: Syrah-Petite Sirah
designation: Relentless
