Lionheart Wines' Roaring Red is a very approachable blend of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Mendocino Syrah. The wine is made to be drunk young with bright flavors and soft / medium tannins. The Syrah does a nice job of filling in the mid-palate dip typical of Cabernett Sauvignon.
The wine is easy drinking and goes fantastically with any red meat dish.
