Murrieta's Well Tasting: Vibrant purple color. Aromas of blackberries, currant paste, roasted fig, with vanilla coffee, roasted herbs, anise, clove, some sweet violets and root beer notes. Medium-bodied and plush on the palate with smooth tannins and vibrant acidity. Juicy and tangy fruit (black cherries, raspberries, juicy plums), the fruit has a nice crunch to it, and I get elements of spiced black tea, anise, cedar, espresso and mint. Yummy for sure, but shows freshness as well. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Aged two years in 40% new oak.

Wine Institute of California & Perswijn (Amsterdam): Charming, spicy in the bouquet, a bit nervous in the midtaste. than missing some balance.

Medium purple color with slow legs. Petrol, smokiness and cassis on the nose. Blackberry, lead pencil and tar on the palate. Medium leathery finish.

Everyday table red, it’s easy to drink but a bit jammy after breathing for a few hours.
