Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.
Sweet nose of sweet cherries, blackberries, raisins, smoke, vanilla, cedar, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, coke, earth and black pepper.
Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry to off dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet plums, cherries, wood, licorice, spices, dark chocolates, caramel, coke, black pepper and graphite.
Medium finish with soft tannins and black pepper.
This Californian Red Blend is well balanced and simple. Drinking nicely now and won't get better with age. A nice everyday red wine.
Good right out of the bottle. Might be too sweet for some, but a good party wine.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
$12.

This is yummy! Jammy big fruit, vanilla berries--getting a mix of black berry and some cherries. Tasted against the Gen5 Ancestral Red, which was slightly better. The OZV had a touch more acid. But don't get me wrong, I would be extremely content to be served this anytime!!
p.s, Lori said this was too acidic for her palate.

Nice red blend, little on the sweet side. Blackberries, vanilla and mocha. Great for the price..$10.00 Costco.

Rich nose of preserves, solid body of fresh fruit, and a finish that stays with you. A slight burn midway tampers with the flavor.
