Very smooth, chocolate, cigars, dried berries, and vanilla. Imagine attending a holiday party thrown by Oceans 11.

2nd wine for the night. Fruity and fragrant, a little dry.

Unbalanced Merlot with high level of residual sugars and weak finish.

Pull the cork, and release the ancient power that melts the evil and leaves the hero. Just don't open your eyes.

It's definitely wine.

(It doesn't offend, but sits at about a grade two reading level. Amtrak, like VIA rail, seems hellbent on discouraging foreign travellers from drinking domestic wines. And perhaps Mr. Coppola should stick to filmmaking.)
