Great for upscaling the outdoor amphitheater pre-theater picnic party - great with a variety of cheeses, almonds, dried fruits, crackers, and food truck entrees. — 7 years ago
Dark and stormy night. Smells mysterious and licorice-y. Plums. Cherries of the cooked and black sort. Flavor is smooth and juicy. Slight Rhône style flavor profile. Makes a nice compliment to meats and spicy faire. Plenty of depth. Fruit driven, but the backbone of Petite(s) and dark intense Tannat holds the bomb back. Just a lovely bombastic red blend from Yolo. CA wine for sure. Even hot climate CA red. But it has lots to offer. On the list with ‘The Boss’ for Yolo blend to watch. — 7 years ago

It’s dark. Black-purple. Slightly edged in red. Nose is heady. Stewed fruits and dark unsweetened chocolate. Moss. Wet moss in there too. And some herbal extract. Not sure which. Flavor is rich. Slightly ‘sweet’ or fruity. Dark, ripe stone fruits. Plenty of acid cuts through though. Not stain the teeth and dry the tongue tannic as some Petite Sirah tends towards. There’s a smokey, savory element in there too. This is great. A big red, but one with elegance and style.

Juicy and rich! Crowd pleaser on purpose. French varietals, mostly malbec. Definitely worth the cost. — 8 years ago
Light golden yellow. Toasty oak is the head aroma in charge, backed up with a healthy helping of ginger,and a sampling of pineapple and banana. Full bodied with a creamy and buttery mouthfeel and low acidity. Flavors of pineapple, pears, cantaloupe and ginger, and it finishes long with a smooth coating of caramel apple. — 8 years ago
Needs very little if any breathing. Medium body and very neutral--not overly fruity or spicy. — 8 years ago
Yummy! Savory, with cherry, blackberry pie, with enough acidity and tannin to balance perfectly. — 9 years ago
