Depth. Deep ruby color and massive fruit forward entrance of assorted berries, but surprisingly not overly sweet which was pleasing. This, coupled with the long dry oaky finish, made nice pairing with red meat. Better after decanted for an hour. Vineyard recommends storing but save the shelf space and enjoy her now.

Opened bottle and smelled strong of raisins. First sip. Not impressive. Very light and flat (I expected bolder). Very enjoyable after some time.

I like this wine. Lots of depth with a cherry finish. Agree with many, let it sit an hour.

Really enjoyed this bottle of wine. Went well with the cheese and crackers we were snacking on. Would buy it again.

Taste bland at first, slightly sweet but not bad. Nothing bad about it but not enough personality
