Peju Napa Valley Red Blend
I have become a big fan of the Peju wines. This is no exception. They have stronger wines than this, but I may have corked it a bit early. Still very good. Dark berry flavors, yet still dry. Very good.

Mar 10th, 2016Just received in wine club shipment and thought would give a try. I don't have the nose some do so will just say it was a very nice wine. Had some strong tannins and is a somewhat spicy wine on the back end. The second glass was much smoother than the first. I did enjoy the wine but not my favorite and probably a bit overpriced at retail. Would be interested to see how it drinks in 5 years though.

Mar 10th, 2016Nice nose - pleasant on the front end and spicy as it goes down...but not too spicy. Not their best, but a very drinkable wine.
