Definitely getting an old world nose from this, with sour cherry and pomegranate notes. Good acidity, nice body, short finish.

Really good with KC cheeses at dad’s for his 79th birthday. Blueberry and strawberry with some earthiness.

Awesome Barbara! I wasn't sure how it was gonna be, but it totally surprised me. Smooth, no tannins, delicious red fruits, nice full, round mouthfeel.

One of the few wines That I haven't had the pleasure to taste from one of my favorite wine makers. Blackberry bouquet on the nose and black cherry and blueberry flavors in the mouth.

Amazing wine to drink! With notes of berry, lightly toasted oak and a slight vanilla sweetness that is very pleasing to the palate!
