  February 27, 2013 - A very good price on a fruit forward (but not syrupy) red blend. These actually got a lot better towards the end of the case, would buy again.

  August 6, 2012 - Initially a bit too fruit forward, this got better with time. 61% Merlot, 18% Malbec, 14% Cabernet Franc, and 7% Cabernet Sauvignon.

  February 28, 2012 - This is an interesting wine using Bordeaux varietals. It has a clear, medium ruby color and a clean, medium intense nose. Distinct liquorice, black cherries, bell pepper, cedar, and nuts in the nose. The palate shows a dry wine with medium-plus tannins, and medium acidity. Black cherries, pomegranate, and some black pepper ride the back of the tannins. The finish is of medium length and proved to be a good wine with interesting flavors. This should keep another five years.
