2005 RED4
Blend of Syrah, Petite Sirah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre
The Wine
The Power of 4 – this Paso blend is more delicious than the sum of its parts. It combines grapes from our Huerhuero and other selected vineyards located in the rolling hills of Paso Robles, where warm afternoons and cool evening breezes guide the grapes to perfect ripeness. Vina Robles’ RED4 blend showcases the spice and cherry qualities of Syrah, the structure of Petite Sirah, the floral and violet notes of Touriga with the depth and structure of Tannat. An intriguing, youthful wine; your perfect dinner companion.
Enjoy now through 2010.

Robert Rich’s Flavor Notes, September 2007
“One of my favorite budget red wines of the day. The Portuguese varietals aren't clearly evident, but might be adding a tiny tannic backbone and some dark chocolate to the blend. The wine has an open feel on the palate, not lingering nor saturated but very tasty. I plan to buy some for myself.”
