Tasting Notes

Baby, somebody better call God because he's missing an angel.  This bomb-shell of a wine will send you reeling with it's toasted cedar backbone and hearty cherry marmalade.  With intensely flirtatious flavors of worcestershire and soy sauce, I wouldn't get caught alone with this voluptous wine.

- Chuck Reininger, Winemaker
