Rocks! California Red Blend

Red wine, Cab, Zin and Syrah. The wine is medium-dark ruby in color and presents a big nose of cherries and spice. Smoke also takes a turn. The palate has cherry and red plum in the forefront, with sage and cinnamon tagging along. Some of that smokiness from the nose shows a bit here, too. It is a very pleasant taste, and the fruit lasts long into the finish.

Better once it gets some air. Meaty and harsh out of the bottle. Opens up to light smoke, smooth tannins, strawberry, and lime.
