Paso Robles Red Blend

Smooth, silky & dark cherry finish. Nice strong blend.

2009. Better than the past reviews reflect. A little cloudy and heavy tannins.

Nice rich jammy flavor! Yum!!

Full bodied, slightly tart. Really easy to drink. Actually worked nicely with a spicy dinner.

Nice everyday blend. An ok $12 value, no more

Bright and shiny, deep color intensity almost opaque. Deep dark garnet color. Syrupy legs. on the nose, clean nose. Medium-medium plus intensity. Fully developed. Black fruit, myrtille, blackberry, blackberry jam, black cherry, a touch of black olive. On the palate, firm, chewy tannins, warming sensation from alcohol, medium acidity, full bodied, medium plus flavor intensity, medium minus length. Left with tannin and no fruit. Good quality, mid priced, ready to drink.

QPR up the wazoo. Lots of fruit for a seven year old wine. Lithe and unctuous. Blueberry and raspberry and chocolate coat the tongue. Fig and tobacco and cherry help accentuate the finish.

Great blend with some bold hints.

Very Dark, cherry, Blueberry and oaky .
