Sullivan Vineyards
Heart of the Vineyard Red Blend


Solid Napa Bordeaux blend. Fairly dark black fruit flavor with griping tannins and a lot of structure. Probably can use some cellar aging to soften up a bit. Worth the $30 I paid but probably not the wineries retail price.

Decanted for 1.5 hrs. Full body, vanilla, bright red fruits, good amount of acidity, great potential for the next 5-7 yrs. Liked it!

Very heady claret. One of this producer's top cuvée, from a hallmark vintage. Drinking ok now with air, but this needs time. Lots of stuffing and structure. I wouldn't touch this again for 3-5 years but I'm sure it'll drink well for much longer than that.

Rich flavor. Dark fruits and pronounced sharp taste. Long finish. Decanted for an hour or so. Went well with lamb.

Bordeaux blend. Very nice but lack of character.
