Dark red in the glass. Lots of dark fruit and vanilla and a bit of cocoa. Probably one of the best VA wines I've tasted.

Blackberry, cassis, licorice, eucalyptus, mocha & oak. Great structure and moderate tannins.

Really nice gift from Bill. Not bold enough of a varietal so not hitting a 9 but really pleased and so was all the family it was shared with

Leather& cedar, dark cherry we like this wine but think earlier Vintages have a better tannin finish

Smooth. Notes of cherry, black berries. Subtle hint of vanilla.

My favorite of all the King Family wines. Softer and yet still rich, compared to the “heavier” grape varietals. I save this one for me.
