Solid 8 for the price point. A little spice on the nose. Gently balanced with tart cherry and tannins. Could use a little more spice/berry on the finish. Good wine.

Spicy plum bouquet. A single flavor layer of plums throw out. Dry burst of a finish.

This is an excellent buy to drink all the time —if you can find it. Harvest Vine Special. The meal was memorable.

Lighter color. Smells: Nice. Berries. Flavor is excellent. Chewy, woodsy and full bodied. It’s a nice lower cost Temp.
