Goober amounts of sour cherries on the nose and palate. Background notes of green pepper and underbrush develop throughout. Not overly complex, but a crazy good compliment to a meal. I can see how this influences their Octagon blend in such a good way. Cheers!

Nice, but not a big red. Pair with a light meat, like a pork roast. BTW, Love Barboursville!
