I had been curious about this wine since buying it and finally decided to open it with a grilled burger. Very drinkable and bold. On the nose its spicy and fruity and surprisingly juicy and smooth on the palate. Thinking of buying several more bottles as a hosting wine.
Color: Deep Ruby to purple and Opaque
N: Ripe black fruit, baking spices, toasted vanilla
P: Very well balanced; Juicy ripe black fruit, toast, baking spices. Smooth tannins, full body, plus alcohol, medium acidity, medium tannins.
F: Finishes smooth with robust ripe fruit and a lingering of toast
I bought this as a Chalk Hill member for $30 and it's well worth the price. One of the better bargains I've had, though I wouldn't consider this a bargain wine.

Delicious wine. Had with leftover Prima’s godfather pizza with prosciutto and basil. Would be fabulous with a great piece of meat.
