Easy drinking blend of mostly Bordeaux reds. Delightful.

Didn’t see my love for this lovely NY wine coming. Just popped something for dinner and yay! Fresh, bright cherries and raspberry, tangy and a tad effervescent even, floral and fruity through the end. And at a merciful 12% it is sooooo welcome for spring.

Cru beaujolais like color. Stony floral nose. Good fresh pallette. Some weight and herbal notes on the seductive mouth. Crisp. Simple? Direct.

Definitely my favorite red of the lineup. Balanced and fresh. Appropriately named and quite pleasant.

Red fruit, red berries, wooded brush, forest breath, cherries, cassis.

Pricing Sideways wrong (I mean it’s a blend, but still majority Merlot).

Jolly ranchers, blackberry compote, nice puckering acidity balanced with fruit forward tannins. Punchy.

Quaffable.

Tastes like cherry coke. I mean that in a good way.

76% Merlot, 11% Syrah, 8% Blaufrankish, 4% Cab Franc, 1% Teroldego.

My first East Coast red wine. Woot! Fantastic semi-uncomplicated (has some dark twist and turns) fruity and tasty Tuesday night pour. Table wine.

Plum, cherry, rose, hint of soil, vine and leaf (?Franc?) light-medium body, 12% ABV.

Reminds me of some young vine wines from the Escondido-Baja region. Happy to start seeing East Coast wines making their way to the West Coast. This is also my first encounter with Teroldego, which seems to be avoiding my orbit.

Good Job! More please!
