Excellent wine. <insert typical phrases about fruitness, oak, tobacco, etc. here> Because of the fruit forwardness, when we first drank it, I thought it was a Zin. We got it on sale for $22 a bottle at a local liquor store. I'm going back for more. I really liked it.

Dense fruit with some funky over ripe notes. This style of high alcohol but still a bit sweet reminds me of some hot weather CA Zins and is not my thing.

Typical Orin Swift profile - hot on the nose, lots of alcohol on the palate, no structure.
Take a shot of this instead of "drinking" it?

Big hit amongst our super bowl guests (fairly discerning group for the most part). I did not get to try, unfortunately, but got a few compliments.
