Pour this down the drain and pass the hater-ade. A goopy, sticky mess reminiscent of Raisinette soup.

Nothing fancy, but that's the point. Pairs well with Wednesday nights and pizza apparently, and is to be shared with girls. I like their theory, it's a great after the bar "let's just go home and drink wine" red.

Sexual chocolate! Decadent oaking, blackberry pie, rounded with easy-going tannins. Super velvety chocolate coffee berry wine. Happy mouth explosion. Stick a straw in it!

For a wine with a ridiculously stupid name, it's not offensive.

Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.

Sweet nose of cherries, strawberries, black currants, cooked plums, raisins, vanilla, wood, spices, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, maple and black pepper.

Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and extremely fruity on the palate with blackberries, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco, chocolates, coffee, earth, light vegetables, cola, mocha and black pepper.

Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins, espresso and raspberries.

This is a tasty red blend from California. Showing lots of chocolate and coffee notes.

Still young and needs another few years in the bottle to mature and calm down. Tasty and delicious. Might be too sweet for some.

Good right out of the bottle and gets earthier as it opens up.
Reminds me of the Michael David style of wines.

Thank you Steve and Alex for sharing this with me.

A blend of mostly Syrah and some Zinfandel.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$27.
