Winery Review: "Our signature Bordeaux-style wine aromas of mocha, baked berries, and earth follow through on a round, supple entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with savory mulberry and tomato notes and a slate and peppercorn accented finish with powdery tannins. Well balanced with a nice acidity and a robust palate. We would pair this wine with roasted stewed beef with baked potatoes and rosemary."
My Review: Best wine I have ever tasted, hands down. It was like drinking sunshine from a unicorns ass. It was extremely soft and velvety and just beautifully blended. There were lots of tannins but they danced elegantly with dark fruits like a cherry cobbler. It was just, perfect. I think anyone would like this wine regardless if they did not enjoy reds because it was just that good. I got a glass of this for lunch afterwards at the winery and just sweet Jesus I could have drank twelve bottles into a stupor and would have been so happy. I need to return and get another bottle ASAP. I did not understand the tomato reference in the review...
