Deep dense nose of black cherry and violets. Palate is full rich body with coating mouthfeel of goreous deep blood red fruit. Finish has rounded tannins and spicy acids. This was wine that first attracted us to Cascade Cliffs and it still may be their best effort.

Gonna agree with dbp on this wine, although I find the nose a bit chalky and the palate carries some watermelon jolly rancher synthetic sweetness. Basic but enjoyable.

Rather pedestrian red wine. Ok on opening, but fizzled rather quickly . Time to drink up.

Fruity with a hint of effervescence.

Needs time to open up, but is a very nice crisp wine with balance and smoothness.
