winemaker's notes:

The color is a lively and brilliant dark ruby-red. The odor is fresh and intense with clean scents of wild berries and hints of vanilla. The flavor is warm and robust, pleasant and balanced. The wine also features a big body.

I would not buy this wine again

The title says it all. A flat wine, no complexity, no depth.

  Superb! - 1/7/2008
I would buy this wine again

I served this wine on Christmas day with a tenderloin of beef (roast). It was a home run. The wine had the perfect level of depth and richness with a smooth finish. My brother and brother-in-law were absolutely moaning as they sipped this wine.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
