Surprisingly complex red, well structures with nice acidity and some stretchy tannins on the finish. Great with cheesesteaks.

Dark red purple. Inviting nose of black cranberry and patent leather. Medium full palate echoes the nose adding a hintnn by of black olive and licorice on the finish. Medium plus tannins. Medium plus acidity. Classic Rhône with a slightly New World sheen. Great with beef or rustic pork dishes.

Soundly disappointing. I can't figure out why the high ratings in the media. Way to astringent even after 45 mins. Not good.

Not getting the 92WA rating. Amazing nose but doesn't follow through. Sour cherry and rhubarb dominate the palate and the tannins are astringent. Disappointing.

Solid Big French red blend - sturdy, well structured with a slight acidic finish. Pair this with a meal as this needs some red meat or cheese to balance!
