Needs some time to open up and reveal itself. Once it did, it was a new experience with each sip. Bramble and dark fruit like a Zinfandel, but with added structure from the cab sauvignon. A very intriguing wine.

Light bodied, lightly spicy. Some plum rounded in the back. A lot of beef jerky notes on the nose.

Great blend of Cab, Merlot and and Zin. This combination brings out great soft fruit flavors.

Meh, no wonder they toned down the zin blend in the new paraduxx releases. Very disappointing, this is usually heads above all others my favorite blend. Oh well, maybe next year.
