Dark garnet color. Dark fruit (blackberry, plum, tart cherry) on the nose. Bold, where the blend comes thru--lots of mixed flavors. Balanced acidity and tannins. Fruit forward, not too dry, peppery-spice, smooth finish. Time and air are friends. (4-13-16-7)

Dark inky color that spoke Petite Sirah and the flavors were mostly PS but they claim it to be only 4%. It did not show the spiciness typical of Zinfandel The wine was smooth and lush but that was lost on the finish which was tense and lightly bitter. A good wine, but expected more than a basic good wine for the price.

Big, bold, dark red blend. Chilled to 58'. Aerated and nice crisp pour. Medium body, balanced tannins, slight dryness, and acidity. Dark fruits, oaky, and slight earthiness. Good now, but likely better in 1-2 years.

Solid. May be better in a few years but opened up after 45 minutes. Lots of fruit and high alcohol.
