This 18 Apothic blend surprised me. I haven’t been a fan in the past, but this is exactly what the label says - smooth and rich. Lack of structure though. Still very quaffable, especially in Lake Tahoe after a huge day of hiking. 😎

Seems to be better than the 2013 vintage! Strong flavours. Good drinking wine, not sure how well it pairs with food

A smooth blend where rich layers of dark fruit emerge, complimented by hints of mocha and vanilla. A long, smooth finish opens your night to endless possibilities.

Rich and smooth, like the label states. Strong cherry notes. At first sip, it seems like it will be sweet but stops just short of that. Very nice.

Easy drinking, very sweet. Wouldn’t buy to sit and enjoy but perfect for a quick buy for the evening
