Wine Review: This deep ruby colored red blend opens with a strawberry and mocha bouquet with hints of cigar box, cinnamon, and blueberry. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced and slightly viscous. The flavor profile is juicy sugar plum and mocha blend with notes of black cherry compote and blackberry. Hints of black tea and blueberry. Its flavors and fine tannins linger and drift away nicely. The Tasting Panel would pair this red blend with char-grilled butterflied leg of lamb or with chocolate cake. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Conundrum Red features dark red varietals including Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon. A medley of fresh fruits including plum and a hint of nectarine; semi-sweet baking chocolate, damp earth and a backdrop of toasted oak aromas. Flavors of chocolate cake with coconut shavings, crème de cassis, stone fruit, nutmeg and clove, smooth tannins. Dry yet rich, with lavish fruit and a smooth texture. Be daring and drink slightly chilled to reveal an unexpectedly refreshing red wine.
