Oak monster, vanilla, heavy dark fruit. It was fun. Nice weeknight drinker that holds good flavor over days.

Has a very well rounded palate presence. It has a full range of flavor. Tastes like Apothic with a sherry finish. Has a slight jammy flavor and 17% alcohol. It really isn't bad, it's just that hint of sweetness that turns me off a bit.

The most disgusting thing I've ever put in my mouth! I literally spit it across the room.

Syrupy texture and dusty fruit like Port wine before a hot, caramel/vanilla finish sets in. Might have been okay without the tart, raspberry jam mid palate. So fucking flabby. I'm out.

Deep ruby in color with a short purplish rim.
Sweet nose of blackberries, blueberries, carmel, vanilla, oak, spices, chocolates, coffee, mocha, tobacco and black pepper.
Full-bodied and extracted with medium minus acidity and long, long legs.
Dry to off dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, raisins, dried figs, wood, vanilla, cloves, tobacco, coffee, chocolates, peppercorn, spices, earth, light vegetables, bitter herbs and graphite.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This California Red blend is always enjoyable.
Good by itself as a sipping wine by the porch, but might be sweet for some. Big, jammy and bold with nice complexity and a long finish.
This 5 year old is still drinking very nicely. I aged it for a few years, but I don't see much difference. Easy to drink, so watch out with all that alcohol. Great for parties. 😉
Aged for 3 months in Bourbon Barrels.

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Extremely fruity on the nose with black cherries, black currants, dried figs, raisins, alcohol, licorice, vanilla, cedar, cloves, spices and black pepper.
Full-bodied, smooth, bold and rich, with medium acidity and long long legs.
Dry to off dry on the palate and very fruity, with black cherries, blackberries, figs, raisins, vanilla, sweet raspberries, tobacco, spices, spice box, wood and peppercorn.
Long finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a great red blend from California. Uniquely rich, extracted and interesting. Has that Bourbon Barrel taste to it, with lots of fruits, and maybe some residual sugar. I also get some Port characteristics.
I was hoping for it to chill down by now, as a 5 year old, but it is still very vibrant and extremely fruity.
Good by itself as a sipping wine and good right out of the bottle. Might be too much for some 😉
