Served w/dinner grilled pork chops brined and rubbed with curry power, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, and brown sugar. Side of grilled asparagus marinated in olive oil, seasoned w/salt and pepper, and brown rice.
Light-red in color, light fruity taste, bright acidity. Black pepper notes on finish.

Thursday, January 05, 2006 Cherry and cola; cola and cherry. Ok, maybe some teaberry in there also. No, there’s not a lot of depth here, but it is a nicely balanced wine. Medium bodied. Always a go to wine for me. This time I picked it as one of several wines for a non-wine (read: martini guzzling) crowd on New Year’s. They chose not to open this one. My gain. 13.5% alc. With mushrooms and country ham with creamy grits. Actually, this was a pretty good pairing.

Good consistency, light red, some purpling at edges. Nose of strawberry jam, slight vanilla. Great red fruit attack. General feeling of a very well made wine, excellent balance, silky as PN should be.
