Needs to breathe. Very weak and disappointing.

Tart cherry pie. Pretty basic overall.

Good rich fruit flavors. A bit sharp on the first part of the sip, silky finish

This could pretty accurately be called 'generic red wine.' Not offensive, but there isn't much to recommend it, either. Seems like the varieties don't mesh well; there's no sense of harmony to the blend. Just feels like blended leftovers.

What comes after E? F!
Blackberry and currant flavors dominate. Rich and chewy; like most Phinney efforts, this is a big, concentrated wine. He puts his foot on the gas and doesn't let up. You need to appreciate it for what it is - a full-bodied fruit bomb. Different, albeit more fruit-forward than the E, and a good value.

Red blend of IDKW. Not as good as recommended. Needs to breathe. Interesting but that is it.

Excellent table wine. Dry with a real clean finish. No bite, very much a favorite if mine.
Hard to find, but when I do I buy it.
