Winery Review:  Made predominantly from Paso Robles grapes, the wine is full- bodied and silky yet robust, with aromas of black cherry and plum and a palate of blackberry, raspberry and blueberry jam laced with vanilla and toast.

Personal Review:  Cherries and oaken smell. Lots of cherries. Doesn't smell acidic at all. Peppers surprisingly are very apparent in the taste, as the weren't detected in the aroma. A very smooth red, with just a little bite at the end. Blackberries are the dominant fruit in the taste as opposed to cherries in the smell, but peppers and spices are also very strong flavors.
