Smells like raspberries and cherry. Darker than a Pinot noir. Tastes sweeter than it smells, not super heavy. Pairs well with charcuterie.

Cherry, woodsy. Holiday spicy. Wanted a roast chicken vs. the filet I had paired. Tasted more like a genius Pinot Noir and a Junior Varsity Cab. A lovely New world Red. Buy, and let it mature. And I would dial the 14.5 alcohol to a 13.

Unique red blend, very little on the nose or finish, but an easy drinking red blend.

Med body cab. Black cherries, tobacco with hints of vanilla on the nose. Dark fruits continue on the pallet before acid and tannin take over. Probably better with food. Cv'ed a glass...not bad for a Monday.
