I absolutely love this wine. I tried it at a wine fest and when they opened the bottle, it smelled like Christmas. It has kind of pine notes with nutmeg with still a rich red wine sweetness. I gave it a 97 because it could use a bit more of the spice since it is subtle, but it's my favorite wine for the season! I wish I could recreate it by infusing some Pinot Noirs because I like it much better than the more sugary, fruity mulled wines.

This does remind you of the holidays, maybe warmed up, not something I would want to drink a lot of, becomes cloying after a glass.

One of their better reds, red fruits, pepper, violets, on the lighter side with structure that falls off a little toward the end.

Pepper, violets, obvious Cab Franc flavors, with a sweeter finish. It's not bad, better if cold.

Similar to last tasting, it's one of their better offerings with more complexity, probably better on a hot day and nicely chilled.

Lost a lot of its flavor. Would have been better drinking it young.

Could have used more "spice." It is an OK wine for the holidays for those that are either not wine drinkers or are very picky.

Was OK. Think we had this too long as it lost a lot of flavor.

Really nice nose, spices galore, medium style, light acidity, good overall if you are in the mood for the very special and unique style. Much like a spiced wine, without the work.

Light in style as are all of their wines, aged in French Oak for 8 months, the acidity gives it a fresh mouthfeel, probably better chilled.

Very oaky and grapey. Tasted a little like the prisoner. Almost artificial in taste like a few things may have been added.

Gotta have (dark) chocolate with it. Strong. Has a slight sweetness. Some strange or off flavors noticeable when tasted on its own.

Tasted at the winery. This is a 16.8% ABV wine, from late harvest Chambourcin grapes. Dark color. Full body. Strong, with a slight sweetness. This wine should not be consumed without chocolate to accompany it. Bought a bottle.

Unusual wine that starts with apricot and ends with some faint cedar notes. A fun summer wine and great for parties. Decent QPR.

Actually quite good for a spiced holiday wine. Pleasant sweetness and spices. We liked it better room temperature than warmed on the stove
