At first taste I was a little disappointed, so we put it aside. Upon revisiting it the next day it had opened up and balanced out wonderfully and was a very enjoyable. I cannot explain why or how it changed so drastically but I am glad it did.

Very special wine given to me as a gift by Betsy herself after a tasting gone wrong and a hilarious story about our previous visit.

Big red wine with hints of cocoa and berries. It paired very well with a grilled chicken.

This wine never disappoints. Dark cherry red color. Aromas of light red berries, spice, tea, and caramel oak. Smooth with bright medium acidity. Taste of mixed red berries, spicy dark cherry, rhubarb, and vanilla oak. Medium finish.
