2012 First Crush by Bedell. Fruity, with tart berry, vanilla fullness and a touch of smoke. Nice acidity keeping it interesting. Paired it with Old Chatham Sheepherding Co. Camembert. Slightly thin on opening, decanted to fullness after a couple days.

First night in the new apt w Abby, 2nd time trying one of Abby's fave juicy reds. Not complex but very drinkable. Order cases online for half price!

Earth and cranberry on the nose. Very light and bright on the palate. Nice dry strawberry, cranberry and sour cherry on the palate. Drying tannins with persistent acidity. Medium, drying finish.

Very drinkable red table wine. Punch of flavor up front and lingers nicely.
