Jada Vineyard & Winery Strayts 2017 750ml Upper GoulburnSavory aromas of charred meat and black olive pick up a fruit aspect with scorched blueberry on the nose of this blend of 51% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petite Sirah, 13% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec. The roasted meat and fruit flavors hang on for the palate, where soy, pepper sauce and braised beef shank elements also show. Matt Kettmann
