🏰 Alban Vineyards is renowned for its Rhone varietals, and their Pandora is a distinctive Grenache-Syrah blend from California's Edna Valley. The 2010 vintage for California Rhone blends generally produced rich, concentrated wines. This Pandora is described as aromatic and exotic, with notes of smoked herbs, juvenile fresh red fruits, fennel, and wet crushed stones, presenting a dense and long profile.
