Aroma: Cherry, Coffee and Chocolate
Taste: The aroma did not disguise the taste. Numbs the tip of the tongue on entry then spreads evenly throughout the mouth. Excellent tannin structure that represents a solid body which slightly belies the appearance but it all matches up in the end.
Comments: You gotta love a wine that warms the belly without being overly heated. We have made this wine our new house wine and did a blind test with our old house red wines (Blackstone Cab and Hayman & Hill Cab) and there was simply no comparison. This wine has much better body, is more even and is a better fit overall for my current palate. And the price is good too…I’ve seen it online for as low as $11.99.
