Wine Review: This dark ruby colored red blend is a really good everyday value wine. It opens with a plum bouquet with hints of black licorice and old oak. On the palate this wine is medium bodied, balanced and smooth. The flavor profile is a pleasant mild old oak infused gentle plum. The finish is dry and its well managed tannins are friendly. Pair this wine with a grilled mushroom burger. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Ruby color, with violet shade. Intense nose, fresh red fruits on 1st Part, then black fruits at the ventilation with light liquorice aromas. Fresh mouth, round and fond of red fruits. Good volume, silky tannins beautiful textures and length on cassis and cherry notes.
