I don't drink much California wine, but this was a nice surprise. This is really nicely fresh and shows good balance. Plenty of fresh, vibrant black/blue CA fruit, and the oak and alcohol are in check. Seder in Scarsdale.

So this wine is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Petite Sirah. Dark purple in color with on the nose ripe blackberries, cassis, blueberries with touches of tar and freshly cracked pepper. Full-bodied with on the palate ripe forest berries, roasted herbs, black pepper, tar, good balancing acidity with notes of freshly brewed coffee and dark chocolate with gripping tannins gently coating the mouth on the long and rich finish. Very nice wine. 14.4% Abv.

PnP. While not complex, this has good dark fruit. Took some time to rid itself of sharp tannins on the back end. Decent kosher wine.
