Beringer The Waymaker Red Blend, 2017

This is built to be a "grillin" wine, perfect with BBQ, ready to stand up to the more intense flavors of roasted meats and stews. Medium-bodied and juicy, the blend shows off firm tannins, accented by ripe plum, cocoa and a slightly tart but seductive mouthfeel. Blend: 38% Syrah, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petite Sirah, 7% Zinfandel, 6% Tannat, 3% Mourvèdre, 3% Petit Verdot, 3% Malbec, 1% other
