emBrazen is a new line of wines honoring bold women who were trailblazers in their fields.  This one honors Nellie Bly who became a Foreign Correspondent.  This wine was a step up from the Chardonnay.  Ruby in color, purple at the core.  The nose is dusty with black cherries and some tobacco.  On the palate, the black cherries continue.  Good acidity.  Some depth.  This would work with BBQ and other summer/autumn fare.  It retails for $16 which is a very nice value.
