“Damn it, Jim, I’m a winemaker, not an English professor!”

Despite the unfortunate confusion between possessives and contractions, this is a superlative red blend. Delicious blueberry and pepper spice flavors predominate. The body is big and strong without being overbearing. There’s a lot of sediment there, so best to decant or filter.

This is a big Washington Bordeaux blend, perfectly balanced with big thick tannins, nicely proportioned acidity, and the requisite mocha/black cherry flavors one expects of this style. I am buying a case now before it is all gone!
