The wine looks very dark in the glass. The nose is bold, with big cherry, raspberry and blueberry aromas. There are also notes of oak, but just trace amounts. A caramel aspect floats from the glass periodically. The palate is full of bold fruit and a passel of tannins, as my grandparents might have said, had they ever talked about tannins. The fruit dominates the flavor profile. The name on the label isn’t too far off. You might think it is a CDP while sipping it.

Blackberry, black cherry & currant, Cloves, roses. Long fruity & spice finish with the grip of soft tannins. Lovely balance. This was a beautiful birthday gift from a friend.

Paso blend that’s not over the top. Very well balanced. Forward red fruit with solid pinning of dark brambly fruit. Medium tannins. Wait a few years to fully enjoy

Another Paso I’m really loving lately… not as full bodied/bold as I was expecting, but delish, smooth & way too easy to drink the whole bottle
