Dec 8th, 2019Annual Man Cave dinner. 80+ wines accompanied by zebra, oryx, buffalo, bison and any other African meat you can imagine.
My first time with this wine. It surprised me with how open it was. Very ripe and sweet fruit (red, black and blue) with some coconut/dill that I normally get with American oak wines. Finish showed more licorice, baked fruit pie and nutmeg. Impressed for the price point!

Nov 21st, 2018This wine is always such a good value for the money. Rich, smooth, complex, love the 1% malbec on this one, adds a nice little kick on the end. Delicious.

Apr 5th, 2020What a nice surprise, was not expecting much from a "Red Wine" bmend, but it is 76% CS, and 20% Merlot. 15.2 ABV. Bright dried cherries, Indian and Christmas spices, and stone.
Thanks to my friends on Delectable for bringing this OR winery to my attention. 9.2
