  1. Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

    Strong nose of red and black fruits with tobacco, chocolates, coffee and peppercorn.

    Full-bodied and soft with medium acidity.

    Dry on the palate with black cherries, black plums, black currants, coffee, light oak, licorice, spices, dark chocolates, earth, herbs and peppercorn.

    Tangy finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

    This interesting red blend from Sierra Foothills is drinking very nicely now.

    Spicy and tangy. Rich and fruit forward. Complex with a great and elegant mouthfeel.

    This 7 year old is drinking at its peak now, and feels like a California Merlot.

    Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes. I gave it a light chill and had it by the water. Really enjoyed the nose at this point.

    I had this vintage 5 years ago, and it is so much better now. Worth the wait.

    A blend of 48% Tempranillo, 39% Sangiovese and 13% Barbera. Only 725 cases were produced.

    14.5% alcohol by volume.

    91 points.

    $50.

    I’m not really one to buy wine by the label art anymore… but this is how you get me to do it 🤙
