Perfumed nose of blueberry pie, cedar and violets with a just-right touch of vanilla. Juicy black raspberry tart flavor. A delicious and unique wine made from a unique and increasingly rare grape. I love OnThEdge's Charbono, and I go out of the way (to Calistoga) to get it. BTW, it goes perfectly with Buster's (also from Calistoga) barbecue sauce (very hot!).

Charbono grape is a first for me. Deep purple color(not of the smoke on the water) variety but close. Tannins are tangy. I should've opened sooner but as the night continues this will get better. This grape is worth a try for all. Berries are pronounced and tart.
