This is always a go to value wine. Amazing? No. But solid, dependable and tasty. Purple/Ruby in color, mostly clear and bright. The nose is nice with cherries, some black cherries, slight cedar and vanilla. Medium bodied. On the palate, cherries with a peppery note. Moderate finish. This is easy drinking with no edges. It works nicely on its own and would work well with burgers off the grill. Drink over the next three to five years.
Another great value from Cline. Deep ruby in color. The nose has cherries, raspberries, bramble and cedar. Medium bodied. Some depth and concentration. The cherries come thru to the palate along with some black cherries. Nice texture. Drinks well on its own right now but will work with pizza or pasta or burgers. This probably should be consumed in the next year or so.
A new wine for me, this was quite good. From members of the Cline wine family. Purple/ruby in color. The nose has black raspberries and some bramble. On the palate, black cherry, underlying char and slight earth. Good balance. More middle of the road on a Zinfandel scale. Good with a lot of foods. Seems like it will easily go a decade more.
Cline makes some great value wines and this is one of them. Garnet in color, mostly clear and bright. The nose has cherries, raspberries, briar patch, and black pepper. Medium bodied. Slight tannins. Good balance. On the palate, this is a bit short of jammy but in that direction. Flavors of Cherries, Black cherries, and Raspberries. Good finish. This is more than an easy drinker, but it does go down smoothly. Nice on its own, this will work great with a lot of foods. A nice choice with ribs or a burger off the grill.
