A blend of 52% Syrah, 29% Malbec, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Merlot, the 2018 ‘Like a Hawk’ Red Blend is a big elegant yet energetic wine with huge color and density. On the nose, aromas of cherry vanilla, black fig and blueberry seamlessly blend while the palate has a big mouthfeel of hazelnut and blueberry flavors with a surprisingly gentle texture for its size and weight. The finish is savory and tasty, with mocha and chocolate lingering. A photograph of Landon Hill, Ryan’s son and the fifth generation of Hill family farmers, is proudly displayed on the wine’s front label.
