Vagabond fills your glass with vibrant fruit flavor. A blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, the intensity of the Syrah's flavor profile, blended with the formidable structure of the Cabernet varietal, combine ideally for this brooding and mysterious blend. The palate is seamless in texture, with no "bumps" or objectionable tannins in the way. The aromas are profound, with a lively fruit and oak balance.

93 points, Robert M. Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate (December 2007): “… top-notch offering … a brilliant blend … rich, sweet bouquet of camphor, blackberries, acacia flowers, and a touch of bacon fat. Beautiful richness, silky texture, and a full-bodied, voluptuous finish … the strength of Claus’ portfolio remains his innovative blends.”

Just 720 cases made.  Drink now or hold up to 15 years. Terrific with hearty food, like stews, barbecued meats, ribs and smoked foods.
