Review date: September 3, 2007

Wine Review: This wine opens with a sweet cherry bouquet. On the palate, the wine is smooth, very dry, juicy, and has forward cherry flavors. The finish is quite dry and quite prolonged. This wine would pair well with hearty beef stew. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: A medium- to full-bodied fruit-forward red with hints of jam, coffee and chocolate, big mouth feel.
