This wine is their tribute to Rioja. So, they called this one "Tilting at Windmills"; which is a reference to Don Quixote. Tilting at Windmills is a blend of; 69% Grenache, 19% Syrah & 18% Cabernet. 40% new oak and 60% neutral. This wine was not racked and stayed on its lees until bottled. On the nose, minty, florals and soft fruits of; blackberries, blueberries, dark cherries, touch of rich dark, earth and dark fresh florals. The palate matches everything in the nose but add strawberries. The body is M & the tannins are M+. Mint really shines on the long finish. The acidity is soft, gentle and mouthwatering. The finish is; long, leaner in body & beautifully elegant. — 8 years ago
Solid deep garnet red core. Beautifully complex nose, starting with dark fruits such as cassis. Slightly savory undertones too. Palate is full of fruit not overpowering and is very smooth. Moderate tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Long, lingering, and smooth finish. Can't believe this was a PNP. Drink till 2026. — 9 years ago

I've been singing the praises of this wine for years. As one drinker related, "if this wine were my blind date for the evening, I'd have proposed before dessert." Another said it's like a PBJ sandwich without the PB. The jammy '10 Venge Zinfandel Blend 'Scout's Honor' is based on a tradition of building a full-bodied, delicious red wine that can be easily enjoyed anytime. — 11 years ago
Jammy. Pairs well with pb&j — 12 years ago

Comparing with the price, it is definitely my best daily wine.
Although it is the Tesco selection(the PB of it), it is not bad. — 8 years ago
