Cherry, boysenberry, earth, dried herbs, menthol, tiny bit of brett but pretty, touch of incense, medium tannins and nice acid. I’m a fan. Great for the price and great with grilled meat.

I said "wow" right out loud when I took my first sip. I am so glad that I was unable to fit the entire bottle into the beef bourguignon for which it was originally intended. I was so disappointed to only have 2 glasses left that my husband drove out into the snow to fetch another bottle. For $12 I wasn't expecting much more than a basic cooking wine. I was pleasantly surprised. Deeply concentrated purple with a large blue black core and thin grape juice rim. Fruit forward, ripe red fruit, figs, cocoa powder, cola. Medium plus body, smooth lush texture, low acid, well integrated, forward moving plush tannin, high alcohol 14% throws surprisingly little heat or prickle. A dry wine but with no bitterness and super ripe fruit there is a perception of sweetness. Flavors on the nose are duplicated on the palate with the addition of black pepper and Rosemary. I expect that this wine will enhance the bourguignon in the pot and in the glass!
