Shop/Critic/Winery Review: "Velvety smooth texture just like its name. Soft tannins and lush dark fruit character. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah bring backbone and character, while the Merlot balances out the blend for a soft, smooth texture."
My impressions: Blueberries on the nose. Interesting, I've never gotten blueberries from a wine before. Molasses/rum flavors, almost like a hot buttered rum. Wait, is that nutmeg? Verrrry good. My favorite out of this bunch. Wonderful sale.
