Interesting story to this wine. Jammy, but not overwhelmingly so. Could use more body.

Made with small amounts of barbera, petit sirah and carmenere. Lots of bright red fruit on the nose. Palate is somewhat flat, showing less fruit leading to a dry finish.

First sip very raisiny. Some confusion says Lodi on bottle but from Napa vineyard? Also it's Luna"tic" wines not Luna. After opening up a bit. Can taste the toasted marshmallow from barrels. Medium body with lots of ripe fruit flavor
