Gorgeous nose of cherries and raspberries, with bay leaf and cherry jam on the palate. Oak? OMG. I could drink this all night, and only $17! What a steal on this wine. Glorious! — 2 months ago
Saturated ruby. Deeply pitched black and blue fruit, vanilla, roasted coffee and exotic spice aromas pick up a floral nuance with air. Broad and weighty in the mouth, offering liqueur-like dark berry, cherry-vanilla and fruitcake flavors that show surprising energy for their heft. Finishes impressively long and smoky with rounded tannins adding subtle grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, December 2021)

Excellent Shiraz blend, would purchase again — 4 months ago
My experience here was different than my expectations. This drinks more like an Aussie cab than a Shiraz, but lighter in style. If tasting blind, I’m not actually sure I could even take this to Australia. The use of American Oak kind of leads you there, but the richness I expected from the shiraz isn’t evident. On the nose, sweet American Oak notes of coconut/dill spice, as well as ripe dark red and black fruits, sandalwood, and a musky/earthy note. Again, the palate was a bit lighter than expected with similar notes to the nose. Faint licorice and dill on the finish. Quite integrated now, and not sure it gets better with time, just different. — 9 months ago
