This is a great wine. It opens with strong berry character and some oak/vanilla. As it opens the jammy character shines through and you get a strong berry sweetness in flavor and aroma that drinks really easy for 14.5%. Stands up to the bit of age I put on it. Will drink again!

Delightfully dry, smooth and just fruity enough. Liked it.

Solid wine. Drinkable alone but also pairs well with dinner. Good body, just bold enough. Great for the price.

Tasty, dry red with a slightly sweet aftertaste.

Medium purple in color. Cooked strawberry, black cherry, plum, Sweet Tarts/Smarties, well worn leather, oak, wet earth, dried herbs (rosemary, basil, and others), cinnamon. Tart red fruit and dried herbs on the palate. Medium acidity lends an initial brightness that transitions to well integrated fine grained persistent tannins. Tart cranberry and pepper on a moderately lingering finish.

Ju-icy and so delicious! A little smoke and some dried spice. Lots of flavor, medium body. Enjoyed it outdoors post dinner... and then drank 3 glasses. Would buy again.
