Generous and juicy-ripe purple plums and cherry liqueur. Full-bodied and generous. About 20% of this wine was aged in French. Tasty from start to finish.

Reviews and Ratings

Mary rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Deep dark cherry and black berry fruit aromas on the nose with some chocolate, figs, vanilla and spice. On the palate, the boldness of the fruit is still there with some additional spice, evident toast, and a lingering juicy and spicy finish. This is a great value wine that you can drink any day of the week. Food Pairing- Great for grilled meat dishes (steak, ribs, burgers) or just sipping whilst watching your favorite mid-week TV shows.
Bella Mcdowell rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Pours a deep, vibrant red. Nose of dark berries, pepper, and a hint of vanilla. Tastes of ripe blackberries, plum, dark cherries, and pepper. The pepper continues into the spicy finish. Great to drink now and would be even better in a year or two
