One of the Spring selections from my Deep Sea membership. The "Red" is a Conway table wine, this iteration being a Rhône style with Syrah taking the majority share of the blend. The Conway Family estate grapes are grown on the central coast, Rancho Arroyo Grande. The Arroyo Grande AVA is a 16 mile long winding valley in San Luis Obispo that offers diverse microclimates yielding a great variety of viticultures. Head to the Santa Barbara Pier one of these Spring days and have a glass at the Deep Sea tasting room! ~$25 | #deepsea #conway #rhonestyle

On the eyes: Blood Red, Garnet Color, Med Opacity, Bright, Light Stain, Med Tears, No Gas/Floc.

On the nose: Vinuous, Cassis with Ripe Red Fruit, Oak notes, trailing into Baking Spices and Vanilla.

On the tongue: Med Acid, Med Alcohol, Med+ Tannin, Jammy Black Plum with Cassis, hints of Vanilla and Tobacco, Med Body with a Weak Structure and Complexity.

Pleasant wine, spicy red berries, on the lighter side body wise

Very approachable and easy drinking. Ripe red fruit. Soft on the palate with just enough acidity to keep it from being flabby. A touch of baking spice and cocoa. Not remarkable, but the views from the tasting room are pretty spectacular so who really cares?

Opened the bottle and the smell was not pleasant (almost "moldy"). Was brave enough to try it and was actually pretty smooth. It wasn't my first choice but not terrible.
