Bright and loud and great fun. Red fruit and white pepper all day long. We put it up against Ridge's Evangelho, which isn't a fair comparison (Ridge's has a big dose of Zin), but so what. It was fun to put this Gen Z wine up against Ridge's Boomer version. The Boomers won in this case (more elegant and balanced), but Desire's wines are always a revelation. This one was no different.

Not as good as most vintages but I still like this wine. Solid red fruit with typical high acidity. Always a great food wine

Well made wine from a great vineyard. Light and simple in style but delivers at a good price point. Summer backyard drinker.
