Saxum, Broken Stones Syrah other_regions_italy this already feels opulent andBlended of 41% Syrah, 13% Mourvdre, 19% Grenache, 16% Petite Sirah, 8% Tempranillo and 3% Roussanne, the 2014 Broken Stones has a deep garnet purple color and exuberant black and blue fruit notes with suggestions of raspberry pie, potpourri, spice cake and fallen leaves, plus a waft of chocolate box. Full bodied and full on gorgeous, it fills the palate with soft, sexy fruit and plush tannins, finishing on a spicy note.
