Nice and big. Lots of violets, roasted meat and black ground pepper. Very nice wine from Colorado. Verdot is underrated.

Dense dark fruit, solid medium tannins, hints of cedar and tobacco, and a burst of savory, peppery Syrah. Colorado proud! #rubytrust #colorado

My last bottle from Ruby Trust. Nose - extremely light of cherries. Taste - fruity, cherries, strawberries, casis. Full bodied. Somewhat quick finish and tannins leave you with a bit of dryness. Love it!

Dec 28th, 2017Love this wine! I think it got better with age too. Great velvet mouth feel, jamminess, balanced tannins, blueberry and blackberry flavors.
