Loads of berries yet well balanced. Very enjoyable.

2017 The Black Stump Durif Shiraz South Eastern Red Blend

Musty and leathery in all the right ways. Well balanced. Drinks well for such a young wine.

Rosé

2017 Fox Run Vineyards Rosé Seneca Lake Rosé Blend

Fruit forward with flavors of strawberry and lychee while still being dry. Nice balance. Much better than the 2016 vintage.

5/26/18, 1:57 PM - I have not found their wines locally but we are members of the wine club. It is only $60/quarter and they send out 2 or 3 wines each time (plus you get a 20% discount on all other wines). The kicker is they will ship whatever additional bottles you add to the wine club order for no charge. We order a couple of cases with the free shipping a couple of times a year when wine club rolls around. If you are going to drop $10-$20 / bottle at Total Wine you might as well enjoy some Fox Run instead!
