Pleasantly surprised at how good this blend was considering the lower price point! The Zinfandel is the strongest taste I’m getting with strong cherry and tart tastes along with more subtle hints of cinnamon on some sips. An excellent wine with meat and greet on its own. Had NYE at Allora with Arancini, burrata and roasted peppers and braised beef with and without pasta. — 6 months ago
1hr+ decant. Dark red color. Nice nose of cedar, dark cherries, and earth. Went downhill from there. Bigger tannins than expected with a tartness that overwhelmed. Minimal fruit and little depth with a near zero finish. Wasn’t over the hill, but just not up to expectations. — 6 months ago
Really enjoyable. Needed time to be balanced and this was good. — 7 months ago

This was great! 1hr+ decant. Dark red color. Dark fruit and rustic elements on the nose. Palate reminded me of all those great Bordeaux’s we had with dinners in London! Medium plus depth and medium finish, that had a high quality taste to it. Awesome!
Similar to my 7/3/22 note. — 5 months ago
Favorite that still delivers. Oaky and round and full but not too much. — 8 months ago
