Friday, November 26, 2010 - Here again, no formal tasting notes as this wine was consumed during the annual Thanksgiving bacchanal at Casa de Rose. Through a haze of turkey, taters, stuffing, and something I can't quite recall, we enjoyed this wine, dare I say, as a means to wash down the components of the meal.

From what I remember everyone found this to be a really decent match for the Thanksgiving flavors. Bold enough to dance with all of the craziness being passed around the table, but restrained enough that no one felt they were getting beat over the head with a high octane fruit explosion.

Moments before unbuttoning my Levi's and going fully horizontal on the sofa, just in time to watch Drew B. remind the Cowboys why they suck, I made a mental note that Roadhouse kicked ass on this wine and I wish I had more in the closet. Fairly pronounced dark fruit on the nose and a nice balance of ripe black cherries and spice on the palate.

If you can, hit these guys up and grab some!
