A dry red blend with oak, cedar and hint of vanilla. A decent pizza wine.

Nice. Medium plus body bordering on full. A titch tannic but i probably should have decanted it longer. Great black fruit. Had with beef tenderloin and lobster

Tried the red as well. Spicy red, good with pasta. Just not as interesting as the rosé

Very smooth. Not at all the punch in the face that comes with some new world Meritage blends. Chocolate and cherry on the nose.

I'll probably grab another bottle so I can find out how it cellars.
