pretty much in agreement with buffalolou on this one. a delicious wine, wish i had purchased more. had with a dinner of filet mignon and a creamy potato mushroom gratin and it paired beautifully. on the nose, dark fruit, earthy and peppery palate is all black fruit and subtle oak nice tannic finish makes it a great wine for rich meals.

Enjoyed this with beef short ribs braised in Petite Sirah (McManis 2010). This Rosenblum PS was big enough and fruity enough to stand up to the big meal.
C: opaque plum N: dark chocolate, milk chocolate, blackberries, it's very 'sweet and black' P: just like the nose, dark chocolate, berries, with vanilla ("blackberries and cream") F: long, slightly tannic, dusty and mouth drying tannins give this the finish I love.
This wine is so delicious and drinking so well now, there is no reason to sit on it. Enjoy!
