So if you're anything like me, ideally you want everything to be perfect. A flawless and productive day, executed just the way you envisioned, on and on and on. Sounds easy enough right?! I had the rare pleasure of meeting Dabo Swinney last night - whom I admire immensely for his passion, his fire, his energy, but most importantly, for the positive attitude he exudes. It is contagious. I wanted to run thru a wall after talking to him. Clemson football had an epic run last year. It was a beautiful year. It was so, so exhilarating and exciting. Almost perfect. We may have fumbled on the one in the end. But I choose to remember the great run... and embrace the hope that that can happen again. Steve Reynolds, Italics is a ten. Kudos to you.

Tart cherry and some herbaceousness on the nose. Elegant blueberry, plum and black pepper on the nose. The tannins are sleek and well integrated into this wine. This wine is not a fruit bomb but more in line with your traditional Bordeaux and provides a great expression where the grapes come from. An excellent wine.
