Wine Review: This value offering from Torbreck is very dark and opaque if not black. It opens with some old world notes and hints of blackberry and spice. On the palate, this wine is round, a touch acidic, and has spicy blackberry flavors. The finish is dry and shows some tannin and a little length. This wine would be a good pairing from barbecue steak tips off the grill. Enjoy – Ken
