Cigar, earth, cherries. Deep and rich. Punches way above its price point. Actually got me to get back on to Delectable since I had to see if anyone else discovered this wine. Wow! — 4 years ago

Blackberry fruit followed quickly by woody, cough syrup finish. I thought my first bottle was corked, so I opened the second bottle. It was the same :( — 5 years ago

Bright, light, cherry. Barely any tannins. Fuller body contrasts to light taste. It’s good, but I prefer drier, more tannic wines with more finish. — 6 years ago

Deep, rich full flavor and a color to match. Smooth, velvet blackberry and a high acid (but not crazy) finish. — 5 years ago

9.0

Big plum and jammy nose. Blackberry and cherries in the front. Really big. Smooth vanilla notes to finish. Remarkably balanced for something this big. Really a great CA wine that can stand up to a big ribeye w a Gorgonzola sauce. A bit of a cliche but would indeed pair well w/weed. Perhaps suggestive placebo effect, but it doesn’t suck! — 6 years ago

Lemon & stone. But still very full and balanced. It’s actually a very full mouthful and those acidic notes pull all the way through. Really nice — 6 years ago
