August 17, 2019 - Purple hue that opens with bay leaf, aniseed and black ripe fruit notes. Blackberry, black cherry and leather flavors lead to baking spices and cedar on the finish. Paired nicely with our grilled lamb chops.

May 12, 2018 - Short decant. This is still a young wine, but a great, easy to drink Bordeaux blend. Not as bold or complex as Rendezvous or Lost Mountain. Dark fruit, a bit of acid, great nose. This is a good introduction to RdV at a lower price point.

February 25, 2018 - A deep purple hue that opens with dark berry fruit and earthy forest floor aromas. BlackBerry, fig and blueberry flavors dominate the medium to full-bodied palate. Excellent acidity/fruit balance with a lasting finish of cedar wood and black dirt. Paired nicely with Greek ground pork soup.

April 28, 2017 - Drinks better than the price disparity relative to it's siblings would have you believe.
It's juicy, dark, medium/full bodied, with a satisfying decently long finish.
Paired with a big dripping cheese burger it seemed perfect.
