After a bit of time open, a great nose of Bing cherry and a touch of mocha and really surprising on the palate. After a bit of a lackluster start, this really came alive. Good fruit, depth, and lasting finish. While I was ready to write this one of upon opening, it really caused me to re-evaluate. While short of a "whoa" this might warrant a "wow." thedrunkencyclist.com

Well, I bought a bunch more of these and they are still doing well. I am not sure if I would be as enamored with this wine had I paid retail, but at the Wines Til Sold Out price of $15, this really is a no-brainer. A bit of cherry-cola and more than ample earth, this wine still has good fruit and Pinot character. Very Good. thedrunkencyclist.com

Transparent crimson with a lightly tawny edge. Aromas of cherry, mushroom, dry leaves, cola, and a light floral element. I'm actually getting a little bit of Valentine's candy hearts (the ones with the messages) as well. Light to medium body, medium+ acid and finish, and flavors of plum, black cherry, cola, and lingering spice. Smooth tannins. Drink now. 89-90
