    This has a bright red/carmine color. A fantastic nose of sweet style-darkish red fruits and cola, a combo I really love. Somewhat bright and lively, there is a pure elegance that shows on the nose alone. On the palate there is the red leaning fruit profile: black cherries, some dark currant, some red plums and a hint of Chinese apple. A super expressive wine that has tons of life ahead. A hint of vanilla and cherry cola. There is a touch of kirsch as well! The tannins are just a wee edgy but the balance of the whole package is so satisfying and pure. A medium to medium-light weight which is welcome from a Napa cab. Structured and pure, this has life and vitality. A long finish that keeps the fruits going straight on through to the other side…
    I am thrilled with this. Can you tell? (93 pts.)

Any one else grab this when offered back in February? This particular bottling is sourced part from Ink Grade vineyard.

I bought a mixed 6-pack to tuck away for a year or so. It was hard to pass up with the free shipping, etc.
