    December 21, 2010 - A lot of tannins. Dry. A little rough.

    October 18, 2010 - 14/20 Bonne attaque en bouche avec des tannins gouleyants. Fruité / épicé / vif / agréable. Peut-être un peu raccoleur ? Comme un jeune crooner américain. Mais dans l'ensemble j'aime bien cette franchise que ne tente pas de nous tromper. Un crooner qui s'assume en somme !

    August 23, 2010 - Pop and pour. Crimson in color. Low rim variation. Medium legs. Nose Forest floor, Hazelnut. Taste Blackberry, Red Currant, Raisin, Pear, Molasses. Ok for eight dollars. But I like Hey Mambo is much better.

    April 29, 2010 - 2008 Big House Red

    •The Stuff: While in the video I refer to 6 different grapes being in the wine, I must admit that I was wrong because there are 13 different wine grapes in this bend, including five that I can check off my wine century list (Algianico 6%, Tannat 6%, Nero D’Avola 5%, Sargentino 4%, and Touriga 3%). The other grapes in this wine are 23% Syrah, 14% Petite Sirah, 9% Grenache, 9% Montepuliciano, 6% Mourvedre, 6% Sangiovese, 3% Barbera, and 3% Petit Verdot. The wine clocks in at 13.5%abv and 30,000 cases were made.

    •The Swirl: Bright purple with 50% translucence and slightly thin and watery at the edges

    •The Sniff: The wine struck me as sweet cherry candy with some earthy dust and oak.

    •The Sip: Definitely not the big red as I expected from the moniker. The mouth feel is slightly thin. The first impression was an oaky off balance. As I re-evaluated the wine there was some nice mild red berry flavor good back end structure and a descent finish. Not a wine you pull out of a nice dinner but certainly palatable for burgers.

    •The Score: I wasn’t overwhelmed by the wine and even at a price of $20 for the 3L ($5 per bottle), I can only score it a 3 minus out of 5.
