Once again, for around $20 it's a nice Tuesday night pizza wine.

Balanced & rich. Big ++ for organically grown grapes & sustainability-minded family behind the wine!

Charcoal, spiced fruit. Very and nice subtle with a smooth finish and virtually no bite. One of the best wines I've ever had for the price $20. So easy to drink and will absolutely have again.

Velvety, almost licorice taste. Doesn't seem right to drink it while watching Cartoon Network.

Nice flavors, especially raison. Good tannins and mouthfeel.

Jammy sweet, smooth. Think I would have liked better if I was in the mood for something so sweet

Huge aftertaste, just begging for some buttery chocolate or a marbled steak. DO NOT drink during the day. 💤

Pipe tobacco, lots of vanilla, sweet chocolate, certainly jammy, floral barrel character, red starbursts, M tannins, lacks acid, meh.
