Red brambly fruit, dry grippy tannins, a little dirt on the finish. I'm quite impressed, but with Cypress in the name, it's hard not to be!

Blended by Kermit Lynch. OKay? Well, Kirch, dark red fruits and baking spice. Not super exiciting, but still pretty tasty. I rather have a wine not blended by Lynch, and that is just more exciting.
