Winecast's Review:

A stunning value with strawberry and red cherry fruit finishing with plush tannins. Enough varietal character to surprise even your wine geek friends.

Winecast's Review:

Rusty garnet in color getting a little tawny at the rim. Ripe black current, licorice, menthol and pencil lead aromas. Rich and mouth-filling blackberry and current fruit with some cracked pepper and chocolate finishing with dusty, but still noticeable, tannins and good acidity. This must have been a tannic monster at release but has now settled down and is drinking quite well. Given it's maturity and price point, I think this is a nice value in Cabernet that will hold for another year before decline.13.1% ABVNatural cork closureScore: 86

Winecast's Review:

Golden yellow in color with aromas of apricot, pear and toasty oak. Ripe apricot, fig and white peach flavors with a nice creamy lees component, minerality and orange peel from mid-palate to the finish. Perhaps just a touch too much oak for me but still nicely done.14.8% ABVSynthetic cork closureScore: 88Rating: 3.5/5 stars

Winecast's Review:

Dark garnet-purple in color with aromas of black raspberry, sage and vanilla. Rich in the mouth with very ripe blackberry fruit, black pepper and spice finishing with supple tannins. A very nice soft and jammy Zin for the money.14.3% ABVNatural cork closureScore: 87

Winecast's Review:

Dark purple-black in color with aromas of blackberry, sage and spice. Blackberry, black pepper and spice flavors finishing with medium firm tannins and a bit of heat. More structured than the regular release with nice body but not nearly as jammy in the fruit department. The heat is the main difference here.14.5% ABVNatural cork closureScore: 85

Dark purple in color with aromas of blackberry, plum, licorice and spice. In the mouth, concentrated blackberry, pepper and spice flavors finish long with a silky mouthfeel. Delicious.14.8% ABVStelvin closureScore: 93

Deep black-purple in color with aromas of blueberry, boysenberry and fennel. Rich and soft in the mouth with blueberry and black pepper flavors finishing with soft, dusty tannins. A nice value for less than $10.13.5% ABVScore: 85
