This North Coast red blend offers up a dark nose of smoke, tar, plums, cigar box, vanilla, cedar and an old baseball glove. The palate shows huge black and red fruit, also with plenty of oak spice. BTW, the wine is said to pay homage to Abraham Lincoln. He may have been Honest Abe, but he was not a Federalist. But whatever. You’re not really drinking it for the backstory, are you?

The bouquet is fruity and sweet, yet the taste is full, deep, slightly tart, with an oak finish. Really enjoyable!!

A Nice red blend from California. Showing black fruits with earth notes and chocolates tobacco herbs spices and vegetables.
A little harsh and need a year or two in the bottle to mature properly.
Nice mouthfeel with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
Needs an hour to open up properly and
Remove some of the vegetables notes.
Easy drinking and bold.

This Merlot blend is juicy with flavors of ripe plums, black currents, cola, and hint of vanilla. Mouth feel is round and smooth, with a spicy kick at the finish. Simple and tasty.
