14.2% alc., 974 cases, $28. · Native yeast fermentation, aged in 35% new French oak. Light ruby red color. Enticing aromas of Bing cherry, baking spice and cola. Lighter in style but flavorful, with a core of red cherry and berry fruits annotated with spice. Sleek, with gentle tannins. A solid, every day wine that exceeds expectations at this price.
