Tasting Notes

  • Notes:
    I really enjoyed this wine. Its a blend of 66% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4% Zinfandel. Just enough sweet from the zin. Not too overwhelmingly rich, heavy, dark from the Cab Sauv. We had it with some high end, spicy grilled sausages from the barbeque and tomato soup -not exactly easy food to pair- and it was very complementary. It was the rare wine that was good to drink by itself before dinner and also with dinner. Great wine for everyday drinking but nothing I would store away or save for guests.
