Overall a perfect bottle of wine. It was everything my wife and I love in a bottle; strong flavors but not overpowering. A solid red blend!

It certainly was Big and Easy! Loved it with our Tri-tip BBQ on Independence Day.

The 2017 The Big Easy, Fess Parker's Syrah, Grenache and Petite Sirah blend, is powerful, inky and dense, and yet it is also impeccably balanced. Chocolate, plum, cedar, licorice and leather are some of the many notes that race out of the glass in this decidedly sumptuous, flamboyant wine. Readers who like overt, generous reds will find much to like here. I find myself increasingly drawn to The Big Easy now that it is a bit less heavy than it was years ago. This rich, hedonistic Santa Barbara red is sure to find many fans. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2019)

Ruby color. Lively jammy raspberry, black raspberry, black plum aromas with a hint of caramel smoke, coffee, and chocolate. On the palate it offers pleasing plummy fruits with moderate acidity and light-textured tannins. It doesn't feel as heavy as its 14.9% abv suggests. The finish is clove and milk chocolate. Overall a fruit-driven but not overblown California red blend, supple and well integrated, pleasing by the glass. 66% syrah, 19% petite sirah, 15% grenache; $35 srp (sample)
