Essential Red Old Vine California Red Blend

2014 vintage. Black cherries and spices. Easy drinking, less rustic tannin than the 2013 vintage.

Nice medium bodied Blend. It's a keeper!

One of the smoothest blends I've had. Used a decanter so it could breathe and it lightened up the taste. Slightly fruity with little tannins. Would definitely get again.

I liked it. Not too heavy or dark. Easy drinker. Good to pair with.

The power of blending very well illustrated here. This is basically a simple wine, tuned in to a very likable blend.

Not as good as the zin. Though it has nice color and nice nose, but it is lacking on the palate.

Fruity spicy. Raspberry chocolate cinnamon. Not awful not spectac.

Rich, succulent and jammy with blackberry, dark fruits, cedar, licorice, leather, sweet tobacco/ cigar box . This complexity has a resounding finish filled with peppery spices! Unique old vine fruit intensity gives a memorable wine tasting experience! Prefer to drink it as an aperitif on a cold day, because of its richness, but would be excellent with roast leg of lamb!🍇🍷🌹

Will not try this again..

Bright on nose, smooth but a little too mellow on the tongue. Definitely improved the longer it breathed.
