The Chief 2013, BTR Cellars, Mark Ryan Winery. Nice Bordeaux Blend: Cab Sauv, Merlot, Cab Franc & a touch of PV. Flavors of Blue & Blackberries. Drinks well above its Price!

For the price, one of my favorite wines in the US. Definitely fruit forward but begging for food. Take this wine to a modestly priced, well thought out dinner and hopefully you'll hop on board. Truly comes alive with food.
