I can’t drink these gimmick wines. It’s sweeter than a jolly rancher. Just as much fruit too.

Smokey tobacco and earthy oak flavors. Tart black berries and quite a spicy aftertaste. Very intense flavor. Heavy body. Medium tannins. Very dark color, almost brownish purple.

A little smoky for my taste. Rich flavor with a warm finish. More tannins and not much fruit flavor in the finish. Would pair well with steak.

Tasty. The bourbon barrel smooths out any bite in the Cabernet.

Tart on the palate, slight hints of whiskey on the nose and in the back of the throat. Very smooth.
