Shop/Critic/Winery Review: "It smells like ripe boysenberries and cherries, and tastes generous and broad without being too full bodied. It finishes with more fruit notes and those who love a little spice and smooth tannins will be happy."
My impressions:
Slightly brownish red in color, darker than the Cabernet Sauvignon. On the nose, my first and only thought was berries. I'm not sure what type, but that's where my mind immediately went. The berry flavors continued into the mid-palate, with a little leather thrown in. The finish was full of spices. Quite a good flavor, but I wish it were more complicated. It's good for the price, but nothing special.
I did not have food with this.
