Produced from the Sierra Foothills winery, Shenandoah, this is a dry, briary and rustic Cabernet. It has wild berry, currant and black pepper flavors, with edgy tannins. Needs rich beef and cheese dishes for balanced food pairing.

A good, ruggedly tannic Merlot, with lots of sweet blackberry, cherry and red currant flavors. Tastes sweet in jammy fruit, with rustic tannins. Drink now.

Way too oaky, dominated by vanilla, buttered toast and creme brulée flavors that feel heavy and imposed on the modest pineapple and ripe lime fruit. Made in the popular style.
