Clear, low concentration with brick red hue to burnt orange near outer rim. Delicate nose with mild blackberry and new rubber tires Upfront fruit on the palate with medium finish but not much more to discover in this wine. Representative of cost

(Hedges CMS Red Wine Columbia Valley) A reasonably engaging nose with maple and chocolate with berry and light spice behind it. A bit of heat. Reasonably full mouthfeel with a lot of berry and a tart taste with a touch of blueberry. Taste does not hang together completely and is a bit unappealing toward the finish. Warmer, more standard, temperatures are not very kind to the wine. 51% Merlot; 42% Cabernet; 7% Syrah. 13.8% alcohol. 57,000 cases produced. Sampled at 62 degress.

Not the greatest wine (I remember it being better). It will do for tonight.
