Left over from the days before I understood that I don't really like Napa Wines...
Honestly, not terrible. It has some decent fruit, but it is overwhelmed by the oak and alcohol. Certainly not the worst Coppola wine, and better than I remember it. But still absolutely not my style. I just can't get over the burn from the alcohol that this style of wine has...better with a strongly flavored stew...but then again, what red wine isn't?

Easy to drink with good red fruit, not much beyond that

Pleasant merlot from Rubicon. Strong taste of cherries, smoke, and wood.
