Wine Review: This midnight purple colored wine opens with a fragrant blackberry bouquet with hints of black currant and wet stone. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is round, bright, and zesty for a red. The flavor profile is a black currant and blackberry blend with notes of stone dust and spiced plum. I also detected some hints of purple jellybean. The finish is rather dry, and its dusty tannins and flavors are quite extended. I would pair this wine with a fork-tender pot roast. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Complex on the nose due to its three vines. Notes of violet, plums, blueberry, and fig with hints of thyme and licorice. Balanced combination on the mouth - the silkiness of Malbec, the structure and power of Cabernet Sauvignon and the intensity of Petit Verdot. To be served cold and can be stored up to 8 years.
