Winery review: "This wine possess a deep cherry color. In the aroma you will find dark cherry, plum, blackberry and blueberry jam. These are balanced by cola, coco, and coffee. The wines sweet palate ripples with dark and intense fruit flavors, and finishes with lingering silky tannins. "

My review: This brilliantly colored red blend from Washington was quite tasty. It smelled of cherry, currant, and blueberry. It's taste was super-pleasant and I picked out tastes of blackberry and cherry. It was aged in oak so some cedar/tobacco flavors were vaguely present. Overall a decent red blend.
