Easy drinking, smooth and very nice for the price. Cherry-almond accents, light bodied with bright acidity; enjoyed immensely with chicken and shiitake fettuccine with truffles. A lovely blend.

Love this and the 2011. Smooth, low acid, easy to drink, and shines with food (particularly chicken, beets, and forest mushrooms).

Dark ruby in color with high density and a wide purple rim.

Fruity nose with light intensity and blackberries, blueberries, sweet cherries, oak, licorice, bell pepper, Mediterranean spices, chocolate, tobacco, light tumeric, metals and light green herbs.

Full-bodied and smooth with medium Plus acidity and great long, thin legs.

Bone dry on the palate with blackberries, cherries, plums, raspberries, wood, red currants, vanilla, forest floor, earth, tobacco, mint, eucalyptus and peppercorn.

Medium plus in length on the finish, with extremely soft tannins and black pepper.

This is a nice red blend from Washington State. Drinking very nicely now, smooth and elegant with some complexity. Did not take too long to open up.

Enjoyable by itself or with food, like chicken or pork dishes.

I paired it with Parmesan cheese and crackers.

13.7% alcohol by volume.
